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.

²⁸ A lying tongue hateth those whom it hath ^[a]wounded;
And a flattering mouth worketh ruin.
