14 Perversity
is in his heart,
aHe devises evil continually,
bHe sows discord.
15 Therefore his calamity shall come
asuddenly;
Suddenly he shall
bbe broken
cwithout remedy.
16 These six
things the
Lord hates,
Yes, seven
are an abomination to
1 Him:
17 a1A proud look,
bA lying tongue,
cHands that shed innocent blood,
18 aA heart that devises wicked plans,
bFeet that are swift in running to evil,
19 aA false witness
who speaks lies,
And one who
bsows discord among brethren.
Beware of Adultery
20 aMy son, keep your father’s command,
And do not forsake the law of your mother.
