Proverbs 26:24-26
EasyEnglish Bible
24 A hypocrite can say nice things to hide his thoughts,
but he is still thinking about ways to hurt people.
25 Do not believe him when he speaks kind words.
His mind is still full of evil things.
26 He may not seem to hate people, but he is telling lies.
In a public meeting, everyone will recognize his sins.
Proverbs 26:24-26
New King James Version
24 He who hates, disguises it with his lips,
And lays up deceit within himself;
25 (A)When [a]he speaks kindly, do not believe him,
For there are seven abominations in his heart;
26 Though his hatred is covered by deceit,
His wickedness will be revealed before the assembly.
