KJVKing James Version

Like an earthenware vessel overlaid with silver impurities Are burning lips and a wicked heart.

Proverbs 26:23

Burning lips and a wicked heart are like a potsherd covered with silver dross.

One who hates disguises it with his lips, But he harbors deceit in his heart.

Proverbs 26:24

He that hateth dissembleth with his lips, and layeth up deceit within him;

When he speaks graciously, do not believe him, Because there are seven abominations in his heart.

Proverbs 26:25

When he speaketh fair, believe him not: for there are seven abominations in his heart.

Though his hatred covers itself with deception, His wickedness will be revealed in the assembly.

Proverbs 26:26

Whose hatred is covered by deceit, his wickedness shall be shewed before the whole congregation.
