Perversity is in his heart, He devises evil continually, He sows discord.
15
Therefore his calamity shall come suddenly; Suddenly he shall be broken without remedy.
16
These six things the Lord hates, Yes, seven are an abomination to Him:
17
A proud look, A lying tongue, Hands that shed innocent blood,
18
A heart that devises wicked plans, Feet that are swift in running to evil,
19
A false witness who speaks lies, And one who sows discord among brethren.
20
My son, keep your father's command, And do not forsake the law of your mother.
21
Bind them continually upon your heart; Tie them around your neck.
22
When you roam, they will lead you; When you sleep, they will keep you; And when you awake, they will speak with you.
23
For the commandment is a lamp, And the law a light; Reproofs of instruction are the way of life,
24
To keep you from the evil woman, From the flattering tongue of a seductress.
