Let the labor be heavier on the men, and let them work at it so that they will pay no attention to false words.”

“You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.

“You shall not bear a false report; do not join your hand with a wicked man to be a malicious witness.

Keep far from a false charge, and do not kill the innocent or the righteous, for I will not acquit the guilty.

‘You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.

The judges shall investigate thoroughly, and if the witness is a false witness and he has accused his brother falsely,

“For He knows false men,
And He sees iniquity without investigating.

“For truly my words are not false;
One who is perfect in knowledge is with you.

“Behold, your expectation is false;
Will you be laid low even at the sight of him?

Do not deliver me over to the desire of my adversaries,
For false witnesses have risen against me,
And such as breathe out violence.

A horse is a false hope for victory;
Nor does it deliver anyone by its great strength.

Remove the false way from me,
And graciously grant me Your law.

From Your precepts I get understanding;
Therefore I hate every false way.

Therefore I esteem right all Your precepts concerning everything,
I hate every false way.

A false witness who utters lies,
And one who spreads strife among brothers.

A false balance is an abomination to the Lord,
But a just weight is His delight.

He who speaks truth tells what is right,
But a false witness, deceit.

A trustworthy witness will not lie,
But a false witness utters lies.

A false witness will not go unpunished,
And he who tells lies will not escape.

A false witness will not go unpunished,
And he who tells lies will perish.

Differing weights are an abomination to the Lord,
And a false scale is not good.

A false witness will perish,
But the man who listens to the truth will speak forever.

Like a club and a sword and a sharp arrow
Is a man who bears false witness against his neighbor.

We have heard of the pride of Moab, an excessive pride;
Even of his arrogance, pride, and fury;
His idle boasts are false.

For this is a rebellious people, false sons,
Sons who refuse to listen
To the instruction of the Lord;

“Behold, all of them are false;
Their works are worthless,
Their molten images are wind and emptiness.

Then the Lord said to me, “The prophets are prophesying falsehood in My name. I have neither sent them nor commanded them nor spoken to them; they are prophesying to you a false vision, divination, futility and the deception of their own minds.

Behold, I am against those who have prophesied false dreams,” declares the Lord, “and related them and led My people astray by their falsehoods and reckless boasting; yet I did not send them or command them, nor do they furnish this people the slightest benefit,” declares the Lord.

Your prophets have seen for you
False and foolish visions;
And they have not exposed your iniquity
So as to restore you from captivity,
But they have seen for you false and misleading oracles.

For there will no longer be any false vision or flattering divination within the house of Israel.

Did you not see a false vision and speak a lying divination when you said, ‘The Lord declares,’ but it is not I who have spoken?”’”

“So My hand will be against the prophets who see false visions and utter lying divinations. They will have no place in the council of My people, nor will they be written down in the register of the house of Israel, nor will they enter the land of Israel, that you may know that I am the Lord God.

therefore, you women will no longer see false visions or practice divination, and I will deliver My people out of your hand. Thus you will know that I am the Lord.”

And it will be to them like a false divination in their eyes; they have sworn solemn oaths. But he brings iniquity to remembrance, that they may be seized.

while they see for you false visions, while they divine lies for you—to place you on the necks of the wicked who are slain, whose day has come, in the time of the punishment of the end.

Her prophets have smeared whitewash for them, seeing false visions and divining lies for them, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord God,’ when the Lord has not spoken.

A merchant, in whose hands are false balances,
He loves to oppress.

For the teraphim speak iniquity,
And the diviners see lying visions
And tell false dreams;
They comfort in vain.
Therefore the people wander like sheep,
They are afflicted, because there is no shepherd.
