Proverbs 26:24-28
New International Version
24 Enemies disguise themselves with their lips,(A)
but in their hearts they harbor deceit.(B)
25 Though their speech is charming,(C) do not believe them,
for seven abominations fill their hearts.(D)
26 Their malice may be concealed by deception,
but their wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.
27 Whoever digs a pit(E) will fall into it;(F)
if someone rolls a stone, it will roll back on them.(G)
28 A lying tongue hates those it hurts,
and a flattering mouth(H) works ruin.

and harbors deceit within.
25 When he speaks graciously, don’t believe him,

his evil will be revealed in the assembly.
27 The one who digs a pit will fall into it,
and whoever rolls a stone—
it will come back on him.(B)
28 A lying tongue hates those it crushes,
and a flattering mouth causes ruin.
