American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
Fervent lips and a wicked heartAre like an earthen vessel overlaid with silver dross.
He that hateth dissembleth with his lips;But he layeth up deceit within him:
When he speaketh fair, believe him not;For there are seven abominations in his heart:
Though his hatred cover itself with guile,His wickedness shall be openly showed before the assembly.
Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein;And he that rolleth a stone, it shall return upon him.
A lying tongue hateth those whom it hath {Hebrew: crushed.}wounded;And a flattering mouth worketh ruin.
Let the righteous smite me, it shall be a kindness;And let him reprove me, it shall be as oil upon the head;Let not my head refuse it:For {Or, still is my prayer against their wickedness}even in their {Or, calamities}wickedness shall my prayer continue.
