¹⁶ These six things the Lord hates,
Yes, seven are an abomination to ^[a]Him:
^17 (A)A^[b] proud look,
^(B)A lying tongue,
^(C)Hands that shed innocent blood,
^18 (D)A heart that devises wicked plans,
^(E)Feet that are swift in running to evil,
^19 (F)A false witness who speaks lies,
And one who ^(G)sows discord among brethren.

⁴ “I will send out the curse,” says the Lord of hosts;
“It shall enter the house of the ^(A)thief
And the house of ^(B)the one who swears falsely by My name.
It shall remain in the midst of his house
And consume ^(C)it, with its timber and stones.”
