Proverbs 21:27-29

Contemporary English Version

^27 (A) The Lord despises the offerings
of wicked people
    with evil motives.
²⁸ If you tell lies in court,
    you are done for;
only a reliable witness
    can do the job.
²⁹ Wicked people bluff their way,
but God's people think
    before they take a step.
