“He ransoms me unharmed from the battle waged against me…God, who is enthroned forever will hear them…My companion attacks his friends…his speech is smooth as butter, yet war is in his heart; his words are more soothing than oil, yet they are drawn swords. Cast your cares on the LORD and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous fall.”
