Proverbs 26:24 in context

  1. 22The words of a whisperer are as dainty morsels, And they go down into the innermost parts.
  2. 23Fervent lips and a wicked heart Are like an earthen vessel overlaid with silver dross.
  3. 24He that hateth dissembleth with his lips; But he layeth up deceit within him:
  4. 25When he speaketh fair, believe him not; For there are seven abominations in his heart:
  5. 26Though his hatred cover itself with guile, His wickedness shall be openly showed before the assembly.
