21 His talk is smooth as butter,

yet war is in his heart;

his words are more soothing than oil,

yet they are drawn swords.

21 The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but war was in his heart:

His words were softer than oil, yet were they drawn swords.

21 His words are as smooth as butter,

but in his heart is war.

His words are as soothing as lotion,

but underneath are daggers!

21 The words of his mouth were smoother than butter,

But war was in his heart;

His words were softer than oil,

Yet they were drawn swords.

21 His words are slippery like butter,

but war is in his heart.

His words are smoother than oil,

but they cut like knives.

21 His mouth was smooth as butter,

But his heart was war:

His words were softer than oil,

Yet were they drawn swords.

21 Smooth were the milky words of his mouth, but his heart was war; his words were softer than oil, yet are they drawn swords.

21 His speech is smoother than butter, 

but there is war in his heart. 

His words are more soothing than oil, 

but they are like swords ready to attack. 

21 His buttery words are smooth,

but war is in his heart.

His words are softer than oil,

but they are drawn swords.

21 with speech smoother than butter,

but with a heart set on war;

with words that were softer than oil,

but in fact were drawn swords.

21 The buttery words of his mouth were smooth,

but there was battle in his heart.

His words were smoother than oil,

but they were drawn swords.

21 His talk is as smooth as butter.

But he has war in his heart.

His words flow like olive oil.

But they are like swords ready for battle.

21 His speech was smoother than butter,

But his heart was war;

His words were softer than oil,

Yet they were drawn swords.
