Proverbs 26:24-26
New American Standard Bible
24 One who (A)hates disguises it with his lips,
But he harbors (B)deceit in his [a]heart.
25 When [b]he (C)speaks graciously, do not believe him,
Because there are seven abominations in his heart.
26 Though his hatred (D)covers itself with deception,
His wickedness will be (E)revealed in the assembly.
