'Words' in the Bible

Then will his angry words come to their ears, and by his wrath they will be troubled:

Give ear to my words, O Lord; give thought to my heart-searchings.

You will send destruction on those whose words are false; the cruel man and the man of deceit are hated by the Lord.

For no faith may be put in their words; their inner part is nothing but evil; their throat is like an open place for the dead; smooth are the words of their tongues.

You have said sharp words to the nations, you have sent destruction on the sinners, you have put an end to their name for ever and ever.

His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and false words: under his tongue are evil purposes and dark thoughts.

Everyone says false words to his neighbour: their tongues are smooth in their talk, and their hearts are full of deceit.

The words of the Lord are true words: like silver tested by fire and burned clean seven times.

Then the deep beds of the waters were seen, and the bases of the world were uncovered, because of your words of wrath, O Lord, because of the breath from your mouth.

There are no words or language; their voice makes no sound.

Their line has gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them has he put a tent for the sun,

Let the words of my mouth and the thoughts of my heart be pleasing in your eyes, O Lord, my strength and my salvation.

My God, my God, why are you turned away from me? why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my crying?

Do not take me away with the sinners and the workers of evil, who say words of peace to their neighbours, but evil is in their hearts.

Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from words of deceit.

For they do not say words of peace; in their deceit they are designing evil things against the quiet ones in the land.

In the words of his mouth are evil and deceit; he has given up being wise and doing good.

The mouth of the good man says words of wisdom; the talk of his tongue is of righteousness.

I have given news of righteousness in the great meeting; O Lord, you have knowledge that I have not kept back my words.

The cruel words of my haters are like a crushing of my bones; when they say to me every day, Where is your God?

Because of the voice of him who says sharp and bitter words; because of the hater and him who is the instrument of punishment.

My heart is flowing over with good things; my words are of that which I have made for a king; my tongue is the pen of a ready writer.

From my mouth will come words of wisdom; and in the thoughts of my heart will be knowledge.

Against you, you only, have I done wrong, working that which is evil in your eyes; so that your words may be seen to be right, and you may be clear when you are judging.

Destruction is in all your words, O false tongue.

Let my prayer come before you, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth.

The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart; his words were softer than oil, but they were sharp swords.

Every day they make wrong use of my words; all their thoughts are against me for evil.

The evil-doers are strange from the first; from the hour of their birth they go out of the true way, saying false words.

Who make their tongues sharp like a sword, and whose arrows are pointed, even bitter words;

To you, O hearer of prayer, let the words of all flesh come.

Say sharp words to the beast among the water-plants, the band of strong ones, with the lords of the peoples, put an end to the people whose delight is in war.

I have been wounded with sharp words because of you; my face has been covered with shame.

Give an answer to my words, O Lord; for your mercy is good: be turned to me, because of your great pity.

My heart is broken by bitter words, I am full of grief; I made a search for some to have pity on me, but there was no one; I had no comforter.

I will give news of the great acts of the Lord God; my words will be of your righteousness, and of yours only.

Let not your horn be lifted up: let no more words of pride come from your outstretched necks.

You keep my eyes from sleep; I am so troubled that no words come.

Give ear, O my people, to my law; let your ears be bent down to the words of my mouth.

They said bitter words against God, saying, Is God able to make ready a table in the waste land?

He gave it to Joseph as a witness, when he went out over the land of Egypt; then the words of a strange tongue were sounding in my ears.

I will give ear to the voice of the Lord; for he will say words of peace to his people and to his saints; but let them not go back to their foolish ways.

Keep in mind, O Lord, the shame of your servants, and how the bitter words of all the people have come into my heart;

The bitter words of your haters, O Lord, shaming the footsteps of your king.

Words of pride come from their lips; all the workers of evil say great things of themselves.

Give your mind to my words, you who are without wisdom among the people; you foolish men, when will you be wise?

Then they had faith in his words; they gave him songs of praise.

Because they went against the words of God, and gave no thought to the laws of the Most High:

Words of hate are round about me; they have made war against me without cause.

Take away from me shame and bitter words; for I have kept your unchanging word in my heart.

The Lord is my heritage: I have said that I would be ruled by your words.

Let your worshippers be turned to me, and those who have knowledge of your words.

The opening of your words gives light; it gives good sense to the simple.

My passion has overcome me; because my haters are turned away from your words.

Before the sun is up, my cry for help comes to your ear; my hope is in your words.

I am full of hate and disgust for false words; but I am a lover of your law.

All the kings of the earth will give you praise, O Lord, when the words of your mouth come to their ears.
