Back to passage

Joab said to Amasa, "Is it well with you, my brother?" Joab took Amasa by the beard with his right hand to kiss him.

May Yahweh cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that boasts,

His mouth was smooth as butter, but his heart was war. His words were softer than oil, yet they were drawn swords.

My soul, wait in silence for God alone, for my expectation is from him.

Their own tongues shall ruin them. All who see them will shake their heads.

A malicious man disguises himself with his lips, but he harbors evil in his heart.

For among my people are found wicked men. They watch, as fowlers lie in wait. They set a trap. They catch men.

They will deceive everyone his neighbor, and will not speak the truth: they have taught their tongue to speak lies; they weary themselves to commit iniquity.
