“Though evil is sweet in his mouth, though he hides it under his tongue,
Everyone utters lies to his neighbor; with flattering lips and a double heart they speak.
They make their tongue sharp as a serpent’s, and under their lips is the venom of asps. Selah
As for the head of those who surround me, let the mischief of their lips overwhelm them!
Rescue me and deliver me from the hand of foreigners, whose mouths speak lies and whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
whose mouths speak lies and whose right hand is a right hand of falsehood.
The words of his mouth are trouble and deceit; he has ceased to act wisely and do good.
And when one comes to see me, he utters empty words, while his heart gathers iniquity; when he goes out, he tells it abroad.
For there is no truth in their mouth; their inmost self is destruction; their throat is an open grave; they flatter with their tongue.
“You give your mouth free rein for evil, and your tongue frames deceit.
His speech was smooth as butter, yet war was in his heart; his words were softer than oil, yet they were drawn swords.
The wicked are estranged from the womb; they go astray from birth, speaking lies.
For the sin of their mouths, the words of their lips, let them be trapped in their pride. For the cursing and lies that they utter,
consume them in wrath; consume them till they are no more, that they may know that God rules over Jacob to the ends of the earth. Selah
They only plan to thrust him down from his high position. They take pleasure in falsehood. They bless with their mouths, but inwardly they curse. Selah
who whet their tongues like swords, who aim bitter words like arrows,
Behold, the wicked man conceives evil and is pregnant with mischief and gives birth to lies.
The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a fleeting vapor and a snare of death.
Remove far from me falsehood and lying; give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with the food that is needful for me,
No one enters suit justly; no one goes to law honestly; they rely on empty pleas, they speak lies, they conceive mischief and give birth to iniquity.
They bend their tongue like a bow; falsehood and not truth has grown strong in the land; for they proceed from evil to evil, and they do not know me, declares the Lord.
Heaping oppression upon oppression, and deceit upon deceit, they refuse to know me, declares the Lord.
Hear this, you who trample on the needy and bring the poor of the land to an end,
You brood of vipers! How can you speak good, when you are evil? For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
