Proverbs 16:27-30
World English Bible
27 A worthless man devises mischief.
His speech is like a scorching fire.
28 A perverse man stirs up strife.
A whisperer separates close friends.
29 A man of violence entices his neighbor,
and leads him in a way that is not good.
30 One who winks his eyes to plot perversities,
one who compresses his lips, is bent on evil.
Proverbs 16:27-30
New King James Version
27 [a]An ungodly man digs up evil,
And it is on his lips like a burning (A)fire.
28 A perverse man sows strife,
And (B)a whisperer separates the best of friends.
29 A violent man entices his neighbor,
And leads him in a way that is not good.
30 He winks his eye to devise perverse things;
He [b]purses his lips and brings about evil.
