Your sins are telling your mouth what to say. Your words are based on clever deception.

你的罪孽指教你的口；你选用诡诈人的舌头。

爾惡訓爾之口、爾擇譎者之舌、

爾所言、狡獪不測、可決爾為惡。

爾選巧詐之言、爾口露爾愆尤、

Your sin prompts your mouth; you adopt the tongue of the crafty.

Your sin makes you say evil things. You talk like people who twist the truth.

For your iniquity teaches your mouth, and you choose the tongue of the crafty.

Your iniquity teaches you what to say, and you choose the language of the crafty.

For your wrongdoing teaches your mouth, And you choose the language of the cunning.

For your iniquity teaches your mouth, And you choose the tongue of the crafty.

For thine iniquity teacheth thy mouth, And thou choosest the tongue of the crafty.

A good person produces good things from the treasury of a good heart, and an evil person produces evil things from the treasury of an evil heart. What you say flows from what is in your heart.

They sharpen their tongues like swords and aim their bitter words like arrows.

Innocent or wicked, it is all the same to God. That’s why I say,‘ He destroys both the blameless and the wicked.’When a plague sweeps through, he laughs at the death of the innocent.The whole earth is in the hands of the wicked, and God blinds the eyes of the judges. If he’s not the one who does it, who is?

In the same way, the tongue is a small thing that makes grand speeches. But a tiny spark can set a great forest on fire.And among all the parts of the body, the tongue is a flame of fire. It is a whole world of wickedness, corrupting your entire body. It can set your whole life on fire, for it is set on fire by hell itself.People can tame all kinds of animals, birds, reptiles, and fish,but no one can tame the tongue. It is restless and evil, full of deadly poison.

If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless.

“ My people bend their tongues like bows to shoot out lies. They refuse to stand up for the truth. They only go from bad to worse. They do not know me,” says the Lord.“ Beware of your neighbor! Don’t even trust your brother! For brother takes advantage of brother, and friend slanders friend.They all fool and defraud each other; no one tells the truth. With practiced tongues they tell lies; they wear themselves out with all their sinning.

Rescue me, O Lord, from liars and from all deceitful people.O deceptive tongue, what will God do to you? How will he increase your punishment?

Your mouth is filled with wickedness, and your tongue is full of lies.You sit around and slander your brother— your own mother’s son.

He traps the wise in their own cleverness so their cunning schemes are thwarted.

For their tongues shoot lies like poisoned arrows. They speak friendly words to their neighbors while scheming in their heart to kill them.

All day long you plot destruction. Your tongue cuts like a sharp razor; you’re an expert at telling lies.You love evil more than good and lies more than truth. InterludeYou love to destroy others with your words, you liar!

But robbers are left in peace, and those who provoke God live in safety— though God keeps them in his power.

For from within, out of a person’s heart, come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder,adultery, greed, wickedness, deceit, lustful desires, envy, slander, pride, and foolishness.
