Proverbs 12:20-22
New King James Version

20 Deceit is in the heart of those who devise evil,
But counselors of peace have joy.
21 (A)No grave [a]trouble will overtake the righteous,
But the wicked shall be filled with evil.
22 (B)Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord,
But those who deal truthfully are His delight.
