Proverbs 26:26-28
New Living Translation
26 While their hatred may be concealed by trickery,
their wrongdoing will be exposed in public.
27 If you set a trap for others,
you will get caught in it yourself.
If you roll a boulder down on others,
it will crush you instead.
28 A lying tongue hates its victims,
and flattering words cause ruin.
Proverbs 26:26-28
New King James Version
26 Though his hatred is covered by deceit,
His wickedness will be revealed before the assembly.
27 (A)Whoever digs a pit will fall into it,
And he who rolls a stone will have it roll back on him.
28 A lying tongue hates those who are crushed by it,
And a flattering mouth works (B)ruin.
