Proverbs 16:27-30

New International Reader's Version

²⁷ A worthless person plans to do evil things.
    Their words are like a burning fire.

²⁸ A twisted person stirs up conflict.
    Anyone who talks about others separates close friends.

²⁹ A person who wants to hurt others tries to get them to sin.
    That person leads them down a path that isn’t good.

³⁰ Whoever winks with their eye is planning to do wrong.
    Whoever closes their lips tightly is up to no good.
