Proverbs 6:16
These six things doth the LORD hate: Yea, seven are an abomination unto him:
In context
13 He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, He teacheth with his fingers; 14 Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; He soweth discord. 15 Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; Suddenly shall he be broken without remedy.
16 These six things doth the LORD hate: Yea, seven are an abomination unto him: 17 A proud look, a lying tongue, And hands that shed innocent blood, 18 An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, Feet that be swift in running to mischief, 19 A false witness that speaketh lies, And he that soweth discord among brethren.
