Charles Spurgeon Commentary Romans 3:13-16

"Their throat is an open sepulchre; With their tongues they have used deceit: The poison of asps is under their lips: Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness: Their feet are swift to shed blood; Destruction and misery are in their ways;" — Romans 3:13-16 (ASV)

Their throat is an open sepulcher, with their tongues they have used deceit, the poison of asps is under their lips: whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness: their feet are swift to shed blood: destruction and misery are in their ways:

How true that last verse is of many today! Their sins are destroying them; the lusts of the flesh destroy the body; drunkenness and similar sins are destructive habits, and they make those who practice them miserable: Destruction and misery are in their ways. What miserable persons, what miserable families, what miserable countries, are made by indulgence in sin! There is no true happiness without holiness.
