18 Let their lying lips be silenced,

for with pride and contempt

they speak arrogantly against the righteous.

18 Let the lying lips be put to silence;

Which speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.

18 Silence their lying lips—

those proud and arrogant lips that accuse the godly.

18 Let the lying lips be put to silence,

Which speak insolent things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.

18 With pride and hatred

they speak against those who do right.

So silence their lying lips.

18 Let the lying lips be dumb,

Which speak against the righteous insolently,

With pride and contempt.

18 Let the lying lips become dumb, which speak insolently against the righteous in pride and contempt.

18 Let ⸤their⸥ lying lips be speechless, 

since they speak against righteous people with arrogance and contempt. 

18 Let lying lips be quieted;

they speak arrogantly against the righteous

with pride and contempt.

18 Let the lying lips be stilled

that speak insolently against the righteous

with pride and contempt.

18 Let lying lips be dumb,

that speak against the righteous unrestrained

with arrogance and contempt.

18 Their lips tell lies. Let them be silenced.

They speak with pride against those who do right.

They make fun of them.

18 Let the lying lips be mute,

Which speak arrogantly against the righteous

With pride and contempt.
