Proverbs 16:27-30
New Living Translation
27 Scoundrels create trouble;
their words are a destructive blaze.
28 A troublemaker plants seeds of strife;
gossip separates the best of friends.
29 Violent people mislead their companions,
leading them down a harmful path.
30 With narrowed eyes, people plot evil;
with a smirk, they plan their mischief.
Proverbs 16:27-30
English Standard Version
27 (A)A worthless man plots evil,
and his speech[a] is like (B)a scorching fire.
28 (C)A dishonest man spreads strife,
and (D)a whisperer (E)separates close friends.
29 A man of violence (F)entices his neighbor
and leads him in a way that is not good.
30 Whoever winks his eyes plans[b] (G)dishonest things;
he who (H)purses his lips brings evil to pass.
