As the birdH6833 by wanderingH5110, as the swallowH1866 by flyingH5774, so the curseH7045 causelessH2600 shall not comeH935.

The wordsH1697 of a talebearerH5372 are as woundsH3859, and they go downH3381 into the innermost partsH2315 of the bellyH990. {innermost…: Heb. chambers}
BurningH1814 lipsH8193 and a wickedH7451 heartH3820 are like a potsherdH2789 coveredH6823 with silverH3701 drossH5509.

When he speakethH6963 fairH2603, believeH539 him not: for there are sevenH7651 abominationsH8441 in his heartH3820. {speaketh…: Heb. maketh his voice gracious}
Whose hatredH8135 is coveredH3680 by deceitH4860, his wickednessH7451 shall be shewedH1540 before the whole congregationH6951. {by…: or, in secret}
Whoso diggethH3738 a pitH7845 shall fallH5307 therein: and he that rollethH1556 a stoneH68, it will returnH7725 upon him.
A lyingH8267 tongueH3956 hatethH8130 those that are afflictedH1790 by it; and a flatteringH2509 mouthH6310 workethH6213 ruinH4072.
