New International Version NIV
16 Here are six things God hates, and one more that he loathes with a passion:
16
There are six things the LORD hates, seven that are detestable to him:
17 eyes that are arrogant, a tongue that lies, hands that murder the innocent,
17
haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood,
18 a heart that hatches evil plots, feet that race down a wicked track,
18
a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are quick to rush into evil,
19 a mouth that lies under oath, a troublemaker in the family. Warning on Adultery
19
a false witness who pours out lies and a person who stirs up conflict in the community.
