Psalms 55:9


Psalms 55:8 Psalms 55:9 (KJV) Psalms 55:10
I would hasten my escape from the windy storm [and] tempest.
Destroy, O Lord, [and] divide their tongues: for I have seen violence and strife in the city.
Day and night they go about it upon the walls thereof: mischief also and sorrow [are] in the midst of it.
