What Does the Bible Say About Plotting Wicked Schemes?

Proverbs 26:27   New American Standard Bible (NASB)

He who digs a pit will fall into it,
And he who rolls a stone, it will come back on him.

 

Psalm 64:1-8   New American Standard Bible (NASB)

For the choir director. A Psalm of David.

Hear my voice, O God, in my complaint;
Preserve my life from dread of the enemy.
Hide me from the secret counsel of evildoers,
From the tumult of those who do iniquity,
Who have sharpened their tongue like a sword.
They aimed bitter speech as their arrow,
To shoot from concealment at the blameless;
Suddenly they shoot at him, and do not fear.
They hold fast to themselves an evil purpose;
They talk of laying snares secretly;
They say, “Who can see them?”
They devise injustices, saying,
“We are ready with a well-conceived plot”;
For the inward thought and the heart of a man are deep.
But God will shoot at them with an arrow;
Suddenly they will be wounded.
So they will make him stumble;
Their own tongue is against them;
All who see them will shake the head.
