God didn't say they couldn't, He said it's detestable, like taking His name in vain. Let me give an example: I was in a leadership meeting & the pastor said, ''I wish a pro player would give 8 million dollars to us like he did to ______ church" (The player was not a Christian) I used this verse & others to show their error.
15-dimension said "don't have to be a Christian to quote the Bible", and your reply to him began, "God says otherwise..."
Maybe a misunderstanding on my part? Either way I was just pointing out my take on non-Christians quoting the Bible.
I made a rule for myself a little while back that I will discuss faith/religion,etc here but I won't argue or fight over it. Well, I'll try not to. :-)
God doesn't say otherwise in the verses you quoted.
Satanists, false Christians, and demons disguised as angels of light quote the Bible to their own ends all the time.
