They have sharpened their ordsprog

They have sharpened their tongues like a serpent; adders' poison is under their lips. Selah.

Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: / Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness: / Their feet are swift to shed blood: / Destruction and misery are in their ways: / And the way of peace have they not known: / There is no fear of God before their eyes.

Their poison is like the poison of a serpent: they are like the deaf adder that stoppeth her ear; / Which will not hearken to the voice of charmers, charming never so wisely.

There is poison in the fang of the serpent, in the mouth of the fly and in the sting of a scorpion; but the wicked man is saturated with it.
