Proverbs 26:23-26
Legacy Standard Bible
23 Like an earthen (A)vessel overlaid with silver (B)dross
Are fiery lips and an evil heart.
24 He who (C)hates disguises it with his lips,
But he sets up (D)deceit within himself.
25 When he (E)makes his voice gracious, do not believe him,
For there are seven abominations in his heart.
26 Though his hatred (F)covers itself with guile,
His evil will be (G)revealed in the assembly.
Proverbs 26:23-26
American Standard Version
23 Fervent lips and a wicked heart
Are like an earthen vessel overlaid with silver dross.
24 He that hateth dissembleth with his lips;
But he layeth up deceit within him:
25 When he speaketh fair, believe him not;
For there are seven abominations in his heart:
26 Though his hatred cover itself with guile,
His wickedness shall be openly showed before the assembly.
