Psalms 140:3

3 They make ^atheir tongue sharp as ^ba serpent’s,
and ^cunder their lips is the ^dvenom of asps. Selah

11 If the serpent bites before it is ^echarmed,
there is no advantage to the charmer.

13 ^f“Their throat is ^gan open grave;
they use their tongues to deceive.”
^h“The venom of asps is under their lips.”

8 but no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, ⁱfull of deadly poison.
