“For their heart studieth destruction, and their lips talk of mischief.”
For their hearts plot violence, and their lips talk about making trouble—a description of the wicked's fundamental orientation toward harm, establishing that they are committed to destructive purposes. The verbs 'plot' and 'talk about' describe both internal intention and external expression. The theological significance involves the principle that wickedness is not accidental but deliberate.
