deceit.

lips, from a deceitful tongue.
(Psalm 120:2)

There are six things that
the Lord hates, seven that are an
abomination to him: haughty eyes,
a lying tongue, and hands that
shed innocent blood, a heart that

make haste to run to evil, a false
witness who breathes out lies, and
one who sows discord among
brothers.

a man, but afterward his mouth
will be full of gravel.

with his lips and harbors deceit
in his heart; when he speaks
graciously, believe him not, for
there are seven abominations in
his heart; though his hatred be
covered with deception, his
wickedness will be exposed in the
assembly.
(Proverbs 26:24-26)

things, and desperately sick; who
can understand it?

person is what defiles him. For

pride, foolishness. All these evil
things come from within, and they
defile a person.”

Lord Christ, but their own
appetites, and by smooth talk and

of the naive.

will go on from bad to worse,
deceiving and being deceived.

deceit and hypocrisy and envy and
all slander.
