¹⁹ Truthful lips will be established forever,
But a ^(A)lying tongue is only for a moment.
²⁰ Deceit is in the heart of those who devise evil,
But counselors of peace have gladness.

^22 (A)Lying lips are an abomination to Yahweh,
But doers of faithfulness are His delight.

⁵ A righteous man ^(A)hates a lying word,
But a wicked man ^[a](B)acts odiously and is humiliated.

²⁶ He kisses the lips
Who responds with right words.

¹⁸ Like a madman who shoots
^(A)Firebrands, arrows, and death,
¹⁹ So is the man who ^(B)deceives his neighbor,
And says, “^(C)Am I not joking?”
