And behold, you are caught in your own evil, for you are a man of bloodshed!”

Psalms 64:2-5
Hide me from the secret discussion of evildoers, From the restlessness of the workers of injustice,Who have sharpened their tongues like a sword.

Luke 20:19-22
The scribes and the chief priests tried to lay hands on Him that very hour, and yet they feared the people; for they were aware that He had spoken this parable against them.And so they watched Him closely, and sent spies who pretended to be righteous, in order that they might catch Him in some statement, so that they could hand Him over to the jurisdiction and authority of the governor.And the spies questioned Him, saying,“ Teacher, we know that You speak and teach correctly, and You are not partial to anyone, but You teach the way of God on the basis of truth.Is it permissible for us to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?”

How long will you attack a man, That you may murder him, all of you, Like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?They have planned only to thrust him down from his high position; They delight in falsehood; They bless with their mouth, But inwardly they curse. Selah
