Proverbs 26:24-28
Revised Standard Version
24 He who hates, dissembles with his lips
and harbors deceit in his heart;
25 when he speaks graciously, believe him not,
for there are seven abominations in his heart;
26 though his hatred be covered with guile,
his wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.
27 He who digs a pit will fall into it,
and a stone will come back upon him who starts it rolling.
28 A lying tongue hates its victims,
and a flattering mouth works ruin.
Proverbs 27:6
Revised Standard Version
6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend;
profuse are the kisses of an enemy.
Proverbs 29:5
Revised Standard Version
5 A man who flatters his neighbor
spreads a net for his feet.
