Proverbs 26:23-26
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
23 Like the glaze[a] covering an earthen vessel
are smooth[b] lips with an evil heart.
24 An enemy dissembles in speaking
while harboring deceit within;(A)
25 when an enemy speaks graciously, do not believe it,
for there are seven abominations concealed within;(B)
26 though hatred is covered with guile,
the enemy’s wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.(C)
