Deuteronomy 19:16

Modern English Version

If a false witness rises up against any man to testify against him to accuse him of doing wrong,

See the chapter Copy

Do not deliver me to the will of my enemies; for false witnesses have risen against me, and they breathe out violence.

Malicious witnesses rise up; they ask me of things I do not know.

A truthful witness does not lie, but a false witness breathes out lies.

A false witness will not go unpunished, and he who speaks lies will not escape.

and set up false witnesses who said, “This man does not cease to speak blasphemous words against this holy place and the law.

You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
