14 Who, with (A)perversion in his heart, continually (B)devises evil,
Who [a](C)spreads strife.
15 Therefore (D)his disaster will come suddenly;
(E)Instantly he will be broken and there will be (F)no healing.

16 There are six things that the Lord hates,
Seven that are an abomination [b]to Him:
17 (G)Haughty eyes, a (H)lying tongue,
And hands that (I)shed innocent blood,
18 A heart that devises (J)wicked plans,
(K)Feet that run rapidly to evil,
19 A (L)false witness who declares lies,
And one who [c](M)spreads strife among brothers.
