¹⁸ He that hideth hatred with lying lips, and he that uttereth a slander, is a fool.

⁶ And if he come to see me, he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth iniquity to itself; when he goeth abroad, he telleth it.

⁸ The wisdom of the prudent is to understand his way: but the folly of fools is deceit.

¹⁷ He that speaketh truth sheweth forth righteousness: but a false witness deceit.

⁵ The thoughts of the righteous are right: but the counsels of the wicked are deceit.

11 A false balance is abomination to the Lord: but a just weight is his delight.
