Let not him that is deceived trust in vanity: for futility shall be his reward.
None calls for justice, nor does any plead for truth: they trust in empty words, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.
Trust not in oppression, and hope not vainly in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart upon them.
Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things comes the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
For if a man thinks himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceives himself.
They that regard vain idols forsake their own mercy.
For they have sown the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind: the stalk has no bud: it shall yield no meal: if so be it does yield, the aliens shall swallow it up.
He feeds on ashes: a deceived heart has turned him aside, that he cannot deliver his soul, nor say, Is there not a lie in my right hand?
He that sows iniquity shall reap trouble: and the rod of his anger shall fail.
With him is strength and wisdom: the deceived and the deceiver are his.
Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same.
If I have walked with vanity, or if my foot has hastened to deceit;
Surely God will not hear vanity, neither will the Almighty regard it.
For there shall be no reward to the evil man; the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.
Thus says the LORD; Deceive not yourselves, saying, The Chaldeans shall surely depart from us: for they shall not depart.
