^25 (A)when he speaks graciously, believe him not,
    for there are ^(B)seven abominations in his heart;

²¹ His ^(A)speech was ^(B)smooth as butter,
    yet war was in his heart;
his words were softer than oil,
    yet they were ^(C)drawn swords.

⁹     he lurks in ambush like ^(A)a lion in his ^(B)thicket;
he ^(C)lurks that he may seize the poor;
    he seizes the poor when he draws him into his ^(D)net.

    and fall by his might.
