Proverbs 17:7, 15, 20, 23

Excellent speech becometh not a fool: Much less do lying lips a prince.

He that justifieth the wicked, and he that condemneth the just, Even they both are abomination to the LORD.

He that hath a froward heart findeth no good: And he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief.

A wicked man taketh a gift out of the bosom To pervert the ways of judgment.
