Proverbs 12:22

⁶You will destroy those who speak lies. The LORD abhors the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.

²⁰Those who are perverse in heart are an abomination to the LORD, but those whose ways are blameless are his delight.

¹⁵Outside are the dogs, the sorcerers, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.

¹⁶There are six things which the LORD hates; yes, seven which are an abomination to him: ¹⁷arrogant eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood,

²⁴But let him who glories glory in this, that he has understanding, and knows me, that I am the LORD who exercises loving kindness, justice, and righteousness in the earth, for I delight in these things,” says the LORD.

¹⁵The elder and the honorable man is the head, and the prophet who teaches lies is the tail.

¹A false balance is an abomination to the LORD, but accurate weights are his delight.

²²Because with lies you have grieved the heart of the righteous, whom I have not made sad; and strengthened the hands of the wicked, that he should not return from his wicked way, and be saved alive.

⁸The sacrifice made by the wicked is an abomination to the LORD, but the prayer of the upright is his delight.

¹⁹You have profaned me among my people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of bread, to kill the souls who should not die and to save the souls alive who should not live, by your lying to my people who listen to lies.’
