Proverbs 6:12-15
Legacy Standard Bible
12 A (A)vile person, a wicked man,
Is the one who walks with a (B)perverse mouth,
13 Who (C)winks with his eyes, who [a]signals with his feet,
Who [b]points with his fingers;
14 Who with (D)perversity in his heart continually (E)devises evil,
Who [c](F)spreads contentions.
15 Therefore (G)his disaster will come suddenly;
(H)Instantly he will be broken and there will be (I)no healing.

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
12 A scoundrel and a villain
goes around with crooked speech,(A)
13 winking the eyes, shuffling the feet,
pointing the fingers,(B)
14 with perverted mind devising evil,
continually sowing discord;(C)
15 on such a one calamity will descend suddenly,
in a moment, damage beyond repair.(D)
