Proverbs 26:23-26

23 Smooth talk from an evil heart is like glaze on cracked pottery.

23 Like a coating of silver dross on earthenware are fervent lips with an evil heart.

24 Your enemy shakes hands and greets you like an old friend, all the while conniving against you.

24 Enemies disguise themselves with their lips, but in their hearts they harbor deceit.

25 When he speaks warmly to you, don't believe him for a minute; he's just waiting for the chance to rip you off.

25 Though their speech is charming, do not believe them, for seven abominations fill their hearts.

26 No matter how cunningly he conceals his malice, eventually his evil will be exposed in public.

26 Their malice may be concealed by deception, but their wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.
