Proverbs 26:23-28

23BurningH1814 lipsH8193 and a wickedH7451 heartH3820 are like a potsherdH2789 coveredH6823 with silverH3701 drossH5509.

24He that hatethH8130 disguisethH5234 with his lipsH8193, and layeth upH7896 deceitH4820 withinH7130 him;1 25When he speakethH6963 kindlyH2603, believeH539 him not: for there are sevenH7651 abominationsH8441 in his heartH3820.2 26Whose hatredH8135 is coveredH3680 by deceitH4860, his wickednessH7451 shall be revealedH1540 before the whole congregationH6951.3

27Whoever diggethH3738 a pitH7845 shall fallH5307 into it: and he that rollethH1556 a stoneH68, it will returnH7725 upon him.

28A lyingH8267 tongueH3956 hatethH8130those that areafflictedH1790 by it; and a flatteringH2509 mouthH6310 workethH6213 ruinH4072.
