Proverbs 6:12-19

12A good-for-nothing scoundrel is a person who has a dishonest mouth.

13He winks his eye, makes a signal with his foot, ⌞and⌟ points with his fingers.

14He devises evil all the time with a twisted mind. He spreads conflict.

15That is why disaster will come on him suddenly. In a moment he will be crushed beyond recovery.

16There are six things that the Lord hates, even seven that are disgusting to him:

17arrogant eyes, a lying tongue, hands that kill innocent people,

18a mind devising wicked plans, feet that are quick to do wrong,

19a dishonest witness spitting out lies, and a person who spreads conflict among relatives.
