Proverbs 21:27-29

International Standard Version

²⁷ What the wicked person sacrifices is detestable—
    how much more when he offers it with vile motives!

²⁸ A false witness will perish,
    but whoever listens will testify successfully.^[a]

²⁹ The wicked man puts up a bold appearance,
    but the upright thinks about what he is doing.^[b]
