Deuteronomy 19:16

King James Version - American Edition

If a false witness rise up against any man to testify against him that which is wrong;

See the chapter Copy

Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.

False witnesses did rise up; they laid to my charge things that I knew not.

A faithful witness will not lie: but a false witness will utter lies.

A false witness shall not be unpunished; and he that speaketh lies shall not escape.

and set up false witnesses, which said, This man ceaseth not to speak blasphemous words against this holy place, and the law:

Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbor.
