23. Swelling lips joined with a corrupt heart, are like an earthen vessel adorned with silver dross.
24. An enemy is known by his lips, when in his heart he entertaineth deceit.
25. When he shall speak low, trust him not: because there are seven mischiefs in his heart.
26. He that covereth hatred deceitfully, his malice shall be laid open in the public assembly.
27. He that diggeth a pit, shall fall into it: and he that rolleth a stone, it shall return to him.
28. A deceitful tongue loveth not truth: and a slippery mouth worketh ruin.
