8

Their tongueh3956 is as an arrowh2671 shot outh7819h8803; it speakethh1696h8765 deceith4820: one speakethh1696h8762 peaceablyh7965 to his neighbourh7453 with his mouthh6310, but in hearth7130 he layethh7760h8799 his waith696. in heart: Heb. in the midst of him

I will scatterh6327h8689 them also among the heathenh1471, whom neither they nor their fathersh1 have knownh3045h8804: and I will sendh7971h8765 a swordh2719 afterh310 them, till I have consumedh3615h8763 them.
