The Greek that is translated as «sorcery» or similar in English is translated in the German New Testament translation by Berger / Nord (publ. 1999) with the idiom Gift und Galle speien or «vent one’s rage (lit. «spew poison and bile»). The translators explain: «Literally: Poison their fellow human beings. Because of the context ‘to poison’ is interpreted with a metaphorical meaning.»
