Proverbs 26:22-24

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²² The words of a talebearer are as it were simple, but they reach to the innermost parts of the belly.

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.
