menu_book Verse in Context

15 Therefore his calamity will come suddenly. He will be broken suddenly, and that without remedy.

16 There are six things which the LORD hates; yes, seven which are an abomination to him:

17 arrogant eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood,

18 a heart that devises wicked schemes, feet that are swift in running to mischief,

19 a false witness who utters lies, and he who sows discord among brothers.
