Read in context

Psalms 55:20–23 · Berean Standard Bible

20 My companion attacks his friends; he violates his covenant.

21 His speech is smooth as butter, but war is in his heart. His words are softer than oil, yet they are swords unsheathed.

22 Cast your burden upon the LORD and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous be shaken.

23 But You, O God, will bring them down to the Pit of destruction; men of bloodshed and deceit will not live out half their days. But I will trust in You.
