Psalm 64:3-4

They sharpen their tongues like swords and aim cruel words like deadly arrows. They shoot from ambush at the innocent; they shoot suddenly without fear. 

They sharpen their tongues like swords 
Psalm 55:21  His talk is smooth as butter, yet war is in his heart; his words are more soothing than oil, yet they are drawn swords.
Isaiah 49:2  He made my mouth like a sharpened sword, in the shadow of his hand he hid me; he made me into a polished arrow and concealed me in his quiver.

and aim cruel words like deadly arrows 
Psalm 7:13  He has prepared his deadly weapons; he makes ready his flaming arrows.
Psalm 58:7  Let them vanish like water that flows away; when they draw the bow, let their arrows fall short.

They shoot from ambush at the innocent 
Job 9:23  "When a scourge brings sudden death, he mocks the despair of the innocent."
Psalm 10:8  He lies in wait near the villages; from ambush he murders the innocent.
Psalm 11:2  For look, the wicked bend their bows; they set their arrows against the strings to shoot from the shadows at the upright in heart.

they shoot suddenly, without fear 
Psalm 55:19  God, who is enthroned from of old, who does not change--he will hear them and humble them, because they have no fear of God.
