He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: He that telleth lies shall not tarry in my sight.

He who works deceit shall not dwell in my house; he who tells lies shall not continue in my presence.

He that worketh deceit shall not dwell within my house: He that speaketh falsehood shall not be established before mine eyes.

But the person who acts deceitfully won’t stay in my house. The person who tells lies won’t last for long before me.

I have become like a pelican in solitude. I have become like a night raven in a house.

I am become like to a pelican of the wilderness: I am like a night raven in the house.

But I into thy house will come in thine abundant grace; And I will worship in thy fear toward thy holy place.

Thy tongue mischievous calumnies deviseth subtilely, Like to a razor sharp to cut, working deceitfully.
