Proverbs 6:14-21 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

14. perversion in his heart, he devises evil; at all times he will send out discord.

15. Upon such a man, suddenly shall his calamity come; in a moment he will be damaged and there is no healing.

16. There are six things Yahweh hates, and seven things are abominations of his soul:

17. haughty eyes, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,

18. a devising heart, plans of deception, feet that hurry to run to evil,

19. a false witness who breathes lies and sends out discord between brothers.

20. My child, keep the commandment of your father, and do not disregard the instruction of your mother.

21. Bind them on your heart continually; tie them upon your neck.
