Psalm 55:19-21
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
19 God, who is enthroned from of old, Selah
will hear and will humble them,
because they do not change
and do not fear God.(A)
20 My companion laid hands on a friend
and violated a covenant with me[a](B)
21 with speech smoother than butter
but with a heart set on war,
with words that were softer than oil
but in fact were drawn swords.(C)
