Proverbs 12:19

The Passion Translation

Truthful words will stand the test of time, but one day every lie will be seen for what it is.

See the chapter Copy

The godly will see all this and will be awestruck. Then they will laugh at the wicked, saying,

Deception fills the hearts of those who plot harm, but those who plan for peace are filled with joy.

Tell lies and you’re going to get caught, and the habitual liar is doomed.

The earth and sky will wear out and fade away before one word I speak loses its power or fails to accomplish its purpose.”
