Deceitful Tongue

• Deceit

Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue.

Thou lovest all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue.

A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit.

• Deceit

The remnant of Israel shall not do iniquity, nor speak lies; neither shall a deceitful tongue be found in their mouth: for they shall feed and lie down, and none shall make them afraid.

What shall be given unto thee? or what shall be done unto thee, thou false tongue?

For the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me: they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.

They return, but not to the most High: they are like a deceitful bow: their princes shall fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue: this shall be their derision in the land of Egypt.

• War

And they bend their tongues like their bow for lies: but they are not valiant for the truth upon the earth; for they proceed from evil to evil, and they know not me, saith the LORD.

For the rich men thereof are full of violence, and the inhabitants thereof have spoken lies, and their tongue is deceitful in their mouth.

• Heart

He that hath a froward heart findeth no good: and he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief.

A proud look, a lying tongue, and hands that shed innocent blood,

• Speak
• Vanity

His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue is mischief and vanity.

• Doeg
• Deception

Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp rasor, working deceitfully.
