Psalm 94:21

For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O LORD.

When the morning was come, all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death:

He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, even they both are abomination to the LORD.

Keep thee far from a false matter; and the innocent and righteous slay thou not: for I will not justify the wicked.

And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.

Ye have condemned and killed the just; and he doth not resist you.

In thee have they taken gifts to shed blood; thou hast taken usury and increase, and thou hast greedily gained of thy neighbours by extortion, and hast forgotten me, saith the Lord GOD.

And thou shalt speak unto him, saying, Thus saith the LORD, Hast thou killed, and also taken possession? And thou shalt speak unto him, saying, Thus saith the LORD, In the place where dogs licked the blood of Naboth shall dogs lick thy blood, even thine.

For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.

Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.

Her princes in the midst thereof are like wolves ravening the prey, to shed blood, and to destroy souls, to get dishonest gain.

If they say, Come with us, let us lay wait for blood, let us lurk privily for the innocent without cause:

They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, when they wait for my soul.

For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood.

Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted? and they have slain them which shewed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom ye have been now the betrayers and murderers:

Behold, the princes of Israel, every one were in thee to their power to shed blood.

And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood.

But know ye for certain, that if ye put me to death, ye shall surely bring innocent blood upon yourselves, and upon this city, and upon the inhabitants thereof: for of a truth the LORD hath sent me unto you to speak all these words in your ears.
