But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will also be false teachers among you, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing swift destruction upon themselves.

And the mouth of the wicked spreads iniquity.

The words of the wicked lie in wait for blood,
But the mouth of the upright will deliver them.
