To deliver you from the way of evil,
From the man who speaks perverse things;

A worthless person, a wicked man,
Is the one who walks with a perverse mouth,

The perverse in heart are an abomination to the Lord,
But the blameless in their walk are His delight.

A man will be praised according to his insight,
But one of perverse mind will be despised.

A perverse man spreads strife,
And a slanderer separates intimate friends.

He who winks his eyes does so to devise perverse things;
He who compresses his lips brings evil to pass.

Better is a poor man who walks in his integrity
Than he who is perverse in speech and is a fool.

Thorns and snares are in the way of the perverse;
He who guards himself will be far from them.

Your eyes will see strange things
And your mind will utter perverse things.
