¹² A vile person, a wicked man walketh with a froward mouth;

¹³ he winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers;

¹⁴ frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually, he soweth discord.

¹⁵ Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy.

¹⁰ He that winketh with the eye causeth sorrow, but a prating fool shall fall.

¹¹ The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life, but violence covereth the mouth of the wicked.

³ The integrity of the upright shall guide them, but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them.

³⁰ He shutteth his eyes to devise froward things; moving his lips he bringeth evil to pass.

¹⁴ “It is nought, it is worthless!” saith the buyer; but when he has gone his way, then he boasteth.

⁶ Eat thou not the bread of him that hath an evil eye, neither desire thou his dainty meats;

⁷ for as he thinketh in his heart, so is he. “Eat and drink,” saith he to thee, but his heart is not with thee.

⁸ The morsel which thou hast eaten shalt thou vomit up, and lose thy sweet words.

²³ Burning lips and a wicked heart are like a potsherd covered with silver dross.

²⁴ He that hateth dissembleth with his lips and layeth up deceit within him;

²⁵ when he speaketh fair believe him not, for there are seven abominations in his heart.

²⁶ Whose hatred is covered by deceit, his wickedness shall be shown before the whole congregation.
