In whose heart is perverseness, Who deviseth evil continually, Who soweth discord.

Woe to them that devise iniquity and work evil upon their beds! when the morning is light, they practise it, because it is in the power of their hand.

A heart that deviseth wicked purposes, Feet that are swift in running to mischief,

He deviseth iniquity upon his bed; He setteth himself in a way that is not good; He abhorreth not evil.

Who rejoice to do evil, And delight in the perverseness of evil;

Devise not evil against thy neighbor, Seeing he dwelleth securely by thee.

A perverse man scattereth abroad strife; And a whisperer separateth chief friends.

The way of him that is laden with guilt is exceeding crooked; But as for the pure, his work is right.

He that soweth iniquity shall reap calamity; And the rod of his wrath shall fail.

He that passeth by, and vexeth himself with strife belonging not to him, Is like one that taketh a dog by the ears.

And the instruments of the churl are evil: he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the meek with lying words, even when the needy speaketh right.

But the wicked are like the troubled sea; for it cannot rest, and its waters cast up mire and dirt.

And he said unto me, Son of man, these are the men that devise iniquity, and that give wicked counsel in this city;

For they sow the wind, and they shall reap the whirlwind: he hath no standing grain; the blade shall yield no meal; if so be it yield, strangers shall swallow it up.

Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them that are causing the divisions and occasions of stumbling, contrary to the doctrine which ye learned: and turn away from them.

Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.
