Also seat two villains opposite him and have them testify,‘You cursed God and the king.’ Then take him out and stone him to death.”

Violent men perjure themselves, and falsely accuse me.

The fear of the LORD is to hate evil; I hate arrogant pride and the evil way and perverse utterances.

A truthful witness does not lie, but a false witness breathes out lies.

A false witness will not go unpunished, and the one who spouts out lies will not escape punishment.

Drive out the scorner and contention will leave; strife and insults will cease.

Where there is no wood, a fire goes out, and where there is no gossip, contention ceases.

The chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were trying to find false testimony against Jesus so that they could put him to death.

But reject foolish and ignorant controversies, because you know they breed infighting.

And the fruit that consists of righteousness is planted in peace among those who make peace.
