Proverbs 6:12 - 6:15


12
A vile person, a wicked man,
Is the one who walks with a perverse mouth,
13
Who winks with his eyes, who signals with his feet,
Who points with his fingers;
14
Who with perversity in his heart continually devises evil,
Who spreads contentions.
15
Therefore his disaster will come suddenly;
Instantly he will be broken and there will be no healing.

Proverbs 10:10 - 10:11

10
He who winks the eye causes pain,
And an ignorant fool of loose lips will be ruined.
11
The mouth of the righteous is a fountain of life,
But the mouth of the wicked covers up violence.

Proverbs 11:3

3
The integrity of the upright will lead them,
But the crookedness of the treacherous will destroy them.

Proverbs 16:30

30
He who winks his eyes does so to devise perverse things;
He who compresses his lips brings evil to pass.

Proverbs 20:14

14
“Bad, bad,” says the buyer,
But when he goes his way, then he boasts.

Proverbs 23:6 - 23:8


6
Do not eat the bread of a selfish man,
And do not desire his delicacies;
7
For as he calculates in his soul, so he is.
“Eat and drink!” he says to you,
But his heart is not with you.
8
You will vomit up the morsel you have eaten,
And you will corrupt your pleasant words.

Proverbs 26:23 - 26:26

23
Like an earthen vessel overlaid with silver dross
Are fiery lips and an evil heart.
24
He who hates disguises it with his lips,
But he sets up deceit within himself.
25
When he makes his voice gracious, do not believe him,
For there are seven abominations in his heart.
26
Though his hatred covers itself with guile,
His evil will be revealed in the assembly.
