Let their way be dark and slippery: and let the angel of the LORD persecute them.

Wherefore their way shall be unto them as slippery ways in the darkness: they shall be driven on, and fall therein: for I will bring evil upon them, even the year of their visitation, saith the LORD.

And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the honour of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by flatteries.

Now when they shall fall, they shall be holpen with a little help: but many shall cleave to them with flatteries.
