Psalm 10:7
King James Version
7 His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud:
under his tongue is mischief and vanity.
We just finished an article on "bullies".
How SPIRIT and Scripture describe them.
Whether they be people, governments, or nations.
The spirit of division that drives them is the same:
Ephesians 6:12
King James Version
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood,
but against principalities, against powers,
against the rulers of the darkness of this world,
against spiritual wickedness in high places.
The WORD of GOD describes the fate of bullies.

but are like the chaff

nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6 For the Lord knoweth the way of the righteous:
but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

but the wicked shall fall into mischief.
Proverbs 24:19-20

the candle of the wicked shall be put out.
Isaiah 41:11-13
King James Version
11 Behold,
all they that were incensed against thee
shall be ashamed and confounded:
they shall be as nothing;
and they that strive with thee shall perish.
12 Thou shalt seek them, and shalt not find them,
even them that contended with thee:
they that war against thee shall be as nothing,
and as a thing of nought.
13 For I the Lord thy God will hold thy right hand,
saying unto thee,
Fear not; I will help thee.

whosoever goeth therein shall not know peace.

all things that offend,

there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Romans 2:1-3
King James Version
2 Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man,
whosoever thou art that judgest:
for wherein thou judgest another,
thou condemnest thyself;
for thou that judgest doest the same things.
2 But we are sure that the judgment of God
is according to truth against them
which commit such things.
3 And thinkest thou this, O man,
that judgest them which do such things,
and doest the same,
that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?
Romans 12:19-20

19 Dearly beloved,
avenge not yourselves,
but rather give place unto wrath:
for it is written,
Vengeance is mine;
I will repay, saith the Lord.
20 Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him;
if he thirst, give him drink:
for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire
on his head.
1 John 3:15

and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life
abiding in him.
