"And Samuelª said,ª° As¹ thy swordª hath made womenª childless,ª° so¹ shall thy motherª be childlessª° among women.ª¹ And Samuelª hewed²° Agag² in piecesª°¹¹ beforeª the LORDª in Gilgal.ª" {1Sm 15:33} + "And the LORDª shall returnª°¹ his bloodª upon¹ his own head,ª who¹ fellª° upon twoª men²¹ more righteousª and betterª than¹ he, and slewª° them with the sword,ª my fatherª Davidª not¹ knowingª° [thereof, to wit],¹ Abnerª the sonª of Ner,ª captainª of the hostª of Israel,ª and Amasaª the sonª of Jether,ª captainª of the hostª of Judah.ª" {1Kg 2:32} + "But when [Esther] cameª° beforeª the king,ª he commandedª° by¹ lettersª that his wickedª device,ª which¹ he devisedª° against¹ the Jews,ª should returnª° upon¹ his own head,ª and that he and his sonsª should be hangedª° on¹ the gallows.ª" {Est 9:25} + "His mischiefª shall returnª° upon his own head,ª and his violent² dealing¹ shall come downª° upon¹ his own pate.ª" {Psa 7:16} + "Wherefore,ªª behold,ª° Iª sendª° untoª youª prophets,ª andª wise men,ª andª scribes:ª andª [some] ofª themª ye shall killª° andª crucify;ª° andª [some] ofª themª shall ye scourgeª° inª yourª synagogues,ª andª persecuteª° [them] fromª cityª toª city:ª ...

Those that combine together to do wickedly, are justly dashed in pieces one against another. Blood cannot be a lasting cement to any interest.
