Psalm 55:20-22
Legacy Standard Bible

20 [a]My companion has put forth his hands against (A)those who were at peace with him;
He has [b](B)violated his covenant.
21 His [c]speech was (C)smoother than butter,
But his heart was war;
His words were (D)softer than oil,
Yet they were drawn (E)swords.

22 (F)Cast [d]your burden upon Yahweh and He will sustain you;
(G)He will never allow the righteous to [e](H)be shaken.
