Proverbs 6:16-19
Revised Standard Version
16 There are six things which the Lord hates,
seven which are an abomination to him:
17 haughty eyes, a lying tongue,
and hands that shed innocent blood,
18 a heart that devises wicked plans,
feet that make haste to run to evil,
19 a false witness who breathes out lies,
and a man who sows discord among brothers.

16 There are six things which Jehovah hateth;
Yea, seven which are an abomination [a]unto him:

And hands that shed innocent blood;

And he that [c]soweth discord among brethren.
