For there is not anything reliable in his mouth;
their inner part is destruction.[a]
Their throat is an open grave;
with their tongue they speak deceit.[b]
10 Treat them as guilty, O God;
let them fall because of their plans.
Because of the abundance of their transgressions cast them out,
for they have rebelled against you.
11 But let all who take shelter in you rejoice.
Let them ever[c] sing for joy,
because[d] you spread protection over them;
And let those[e] who love your name exult in you.
