Proverbs

¹³He winks with his eyes, he speaks by shuffling or tapping with his feet, he makes signs [to mislead and deceive] and teaches with his fingers. ¹⁴Willful and contrary in his heart, he devises trouble, vexation, and evil continually; he lets loose discord and sows it. ¹⁵Therefore upon him shall the crushing weight of calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken, and that without remedy. ¹⁶These six things the Lord hates, indeed, seven are an abomination to Him: ¹⁷A proud look [the spirit that makes one overestimate himself and underestimate others], a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood, [Ps. 120:2, 3.] ¹⁸A heart that manufactures wicked thoughts and plans, feet that are swift in running to evil, ¹⁹A false witness who breathes out lies [even under oath], and he who sows discord among his brethren.
