Psalms 12:3-5
May the Lord cut off all flattering lips and the tongue that speaks boastfully.They say,“ Through our tongues we have power; our lips are our own— who can be our master?”“ Because of the oppression of the afflicted and the groaning of the poor, I will now rise up,” says the Lord.“ I will put the one who longs for it in a safe place.”

Psalms 17:8-14
Protect me as the pupil of Your eye; hide me in the shadow of Your wingsfrom the wicked who treat me violently, my deadly enemies who surround me.They have become hardened; their mouths speak arrogantly.They advance against me; now they surround me. They are determined to throw me to the ground.They are like a lion eager to tear, like a young lion lurking in ambush.Rise up, Lord! Confront him; bring him down. With Your sword, save me from the wicked.With Your hand, Lord, save me from men, from men of the world whose portion is in this life: You fill their bellies with what You have in store; their sons are satisfied, and they leave their surplus to their children.

Romans 8:35-39
Who can separate us from the love of Christ? Can affliction or anguish or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?As it is written: Because of You we are being put to death all day long; we are counted as sheep to be slaughtered.No, in all these things we are more than victorious through Him who loved us.For I am persuaded that not even death or life, angels or rulers, things present or things to come, hostile powers,height or depth, or any other created thing will have the power to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord!
