Proverbs 6:18

What Yahweh Hates

¹⁷
A proud look [the attitude that makes one overestimate oneself and discount others], a lying tongue,
And hands that shed innocent blood,
¹⁸ 
A heart that creates wicked plans,
Feet that run swiftly to evil,
¹⁹
A false witness who breathes out lies [even half-truths],
And one who spreads discord (rumors) among brothers.

And plot evil on their beds!

Because it is in the power of their hands.
