| 24 | The one who hates others disguises it with his lips, but he stores up deceit within him. | Whoever hates disguises himself with his lips and harbors deceit in his heart; | Enemies disguise themselves with their lips, but in their hearts they harbor deceit. | |
| 25 | When he speaks graciously, do not believe him, for there are seven abominations within him. | when he speaks graciously, believe him not, for there are seven abominations in his heart; | Though their speech is charming, do not believe them, for seven abominations fill their hearts. | |
| 26 | Though his hatred may be concealed by deceit, his evil will be uncovered in the assembly. | though his hatred be covered with deception, his wickedness will be exposed in the assembly. | Their malice may be concealed by deception, but their wickedness will be exposed in the assembly. | |
| 27 | The one who digs a pit will fall into it; the one who rolls a stone--it will come back on him. | Whoever digs a pit will fall into it, and a stone will come back on him who starts it rolling. | Whoever digs a pit will fall into it; if someone rolls a stone, it will roll back on them. | |
| 28 | A lying tongue hates those crushed by it, and a flattering mouth works ruin. | A lying tongue hates its victims, and a flattering mouth works ruin. | A lying tongue hates those it hurts, and a flattering mouth works ruin. | |
