23 Smooth lips and an evil heart are like silver coating on clay.
23 Like a coating of silver dross on earthenware are fervent lips with an evil heart.
24 Hateful people mislead with their lips, keeping their deception within.
24 Enemies disguise themselves with their lips, but in their hearts they harbor deceit.
25 Though they speak graciously, don't believe them, for seven horrible things are in their heart.
25 Though their speech is charming, do not believe them, for seven abominations fill their hearts.
26 They may cover their hatred with trickery, but their evil will be revealed in public.
26 Their malice may be concealed by deception, but their wickedness will be exposed in the assembly.
