Proverbs 26:24-26

^{Tools
24}

He who ^(A)hates disguises it with his lips,
But he lays up ^(B)deceit in his ^(a)heart.

^{Tools
25}

When ^(b)he ^(C)speaks graciously, do not believe him,
For there are seven abominations in his heart.

^{Tools
26}

Though his hatred ^(D)covers itself with guile,
His wickedness will be ^(E)revealed before the assembly.
