¹² ¶ A wicked man of Belial walks with a perverse mouth.

¹³ He winks with his eyes, he speaks with his feet, he teaches with his fingers;

¹⁴ there is perversion in his heart; he devises evil continually; he sows discord.

¹⁵ Therefore his calamity shall come suddenly; suddenly he shall be broken without remedy.

¹⁰ ¶ He that winks with the eye causes sorrow, and he that speaks foolishness shall fall.

¹¹ ¶ The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life, but the mouth of the wicked covers violence.

³ ¶ The perfection of the upright shall guide them in the way, but the perverseness of transgressors shall destroy them.

³⁰ He shuts his eyes to devise perverse things; moving his lips he brings evil to pass.

¹⁴ ¶ It is bad, it is bad, the buyer says; but when he is gone his way, then he boasts.

⁶ ¶ Do not eat the bread of anyone who has an evil eye, neither desire his dainty foods;

⁷ for as he thinks in his soul, so is he; Eat and drink, he shall say unto thee, but his heart is not with thee.

⁸ Didst thou eat thy part? Thou shalt vomit it up and lose thy sweet words.

²³ ¶ Burning lips and a wicked heart are like a potsherd covered with silver dross.

²⁴ ¶ He that hates dissembles with his lips and lays up deceit within him;

²⁵ when he speaks fair, do not believe him, for there are seven abominations in his heart.

²⁶ Even though his hatred is covered up in the desert, his wickedness shall be showed before the whole congregation.
