Proverbs 26:25 in context

  1. 23Fervent lips and a wicked heart Are like an earthen vessel overlaid with silver dross.
  2. 24He that hateth dissembleth with his lips; But he layeth up deceit within him:
  3. 25When he speaketh fair, believe him not; For there are seven abominations in his heart:
  4. 26Though his hatred cover itself with guile, His wickedness shall be openly showed before the assembly.
  5. 27Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein; And he that rolleth a stone, it shall return upon him.
