Provérbios 6:19 Meaning and Commentary

Proverbs 6:19

A false witness [that] speaketh lies
Or, "that speaketh lies, [even] a false witness" F6; and so this is distinguished from a lying tongue, the second of these evils: this is the sin of bearing false witness against one's neighbour, a breach of the eighth command. It may be rendered, "he that bloweth lies" F7; that raises lies, and spreads them abroad, and swears to them, to the damage of others. This makes the sixth; and the seventh follows, and him that soweth discord among brethren;
whether in a natural relation, or in a civil society, or in a religious community.

Provérbios 6:19 In-Context

17 olhos altivos, língua mentirosa, e mãos que derramam sangue inocente;
18 coração que maquina projetos iníquos, pés que se apressam a correr para o mal;
19 testemunha falsa que profere mentiras, e o que semeia contendas entre irmãos.
20 Filho meu, guarda o mandamento de, teu pai, e não abandones a instrução de tua mãe;
21 ata-os perpetuamente ao teu coração, e pendura-os ao teu pescoço.
