¹⁶ There are six things the Lord hates—
    no, seven things he detests:
¹⁷ haughty eyes,
    a lying tongue,
    hands that kill the innocent,
¹⁸ a heart that plots evil,
    feet that race to do wrong,
¹⁹ a false witness who pours out lies,
    a person who sows discord in a family.

¹⁷ An honest witness tells the truth;
    a false witness tells lies.

⁵ An honest witness does not lie;
    a false witness breathes lies.

²⁵ A truthful witness saves lives,
    but a false witness is a traitor.

⁵ A false witness will not go unpunished,
    nor will a liar escape.
