'Trickery' in the Bible
and said, "You're full of every form of deception and trickery, you son of the Devil, you enemy of all that is right! You'll never stop perverting the straight ways of the Lord, will you?
For the wisdom of this world is nonsense in God's sight. For it is written, "He catches the wise with their own trickery,"
Instead, we have renounced secret and shameful ways. We do not use trickery or pervert God's word. By clear statements of the truth we commend ourselves to everyone's conscience before God.
Then we will no longer be little children, tossed like waves and blown about by every wind of doctrine, by people's trickery, or by clever strategies that would lead us astray.
For our appeal to you does not spring from deceit, impure motives, or trickery.
