    But he is pleased with people who tell the truth.

⁵ Those who do right hate what is false.

    If your tongue tells lies, you will get into trouble.

²² Everyone longs for love that never fails.
    It is better to be poor than to be a liar.

    amounts to nothing and leads to death.

    And words that seem to praise you destroy you.
