Proverbs 6:12-15
1599 Geneva Bible
12 The unthrifty man [a]and the wicked man walketh with a froward mouth.

14 Lewd things are in his heart: he imagineth evil at all times, and raiseth up contentions.
15 Therefore shall his destruction come speedily: he shall be destroyed suddenly without recovery.
