Proverbs 17:7, 15, 20, 23

Excellent speech is not fitting for a fool, Much less are lying lips to a prince.

He who justifies the wicked and he who condemns the righteous, Both of them alike are an abomination to the LORD.

He who has a crooked mind finds no good, And he who is perverted in his language falls into evil.

A wicked man receives a bribe from the bosom To pervert the ways of justice.
