Psalms 55:15


← Psalms 55:14 Psalms 55:15 (KJV) Psalms 55:16 →
We took sweet counsel together, and walked unto the house of God in company.
Let death seize upon them, and let them go down quick into hell: for wickedness is in their dwellings, and among them.
As for me, I will call upon God; and the LORD shall save me.
