²⁴ Someone who hates hides behind his words,
    harboring deceit within himself.
²⁵ Though he speaks graciously, don’t believe him,
    for there are seven detestable things in his heart.
²⁶ Though malice disguises itself with deception,
    its evil will be exposed publicly.

²⁸ A lying tongue hates its victims,
    and a flattering mouth causes ruin.
