Proverbs 26:23-26
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
23 Like the glaze[a] covering an earthen vessel
are smooth[b] lips with an evil heart.
24 An enemy dissembles in speaking
while harboring deceit within;(A)
25 when an enemy speaks graciously, do not believe it,
for there are seven abominations concealed within;(B)
26 though hatred is covered with guile,
the enemy’s wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.(C)
Proverbs 26:23-26

23 Smooth[a] lips with an evil heart
are like glaze on an earthen vessel.(A)
24 A hateful person disguises himself with his speech
and harbors deceit within.
25 When he speaks graciously, don’t believe him,
for there are seven abominations in his heart.(B)
26 Though his hatred is concealed by deception,
his evil will be revealed in the assembly.
