Proverbs 12:17

"Bearing false witness" is lying. Conversely, a faithful witness gives accurate testimony. He declares events, statements, and information as they happened, not as he perceives them or as they give him an advantage. Such a person will consistently tell the complete truth.

Martin G. Collins
