  • John 8:44
    You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.
     
  • Psalm 15:1-3
    LORD, who may abide in Your tabernacle?
    Who may dwell in Your holy hill? He who walks uprightly,
    And works righteousness,
    And speaks the truth in his heart;
    He who does not backbite with his tongue,
    Nor does evil to his neighbor,
    Nor does he take up a reproach against his friend;

  • Deuteronomy 19:15-19
    “One witness shall not rise against a man concerning any iniquity or any sin that he commits; by the mouth of two or three witnesses the matter shall be established. If a false witness rises against any man to testify against him of wrongdoing, then both men in the controversy shall stand before the LORD, before the priests and the judges who serve in those days. And the judges shall make careful inquiry, and indeed, if the witness is a false witness, who has testified falsely against his brother, then you shall do to him as he thought to have done to his brother; so you shall put away the evil from among you.
     
  • Proverbs 6:16-19
    These six things the LORD hates,
    Yes, seven are an abomination to Him:
    A proud look,
    A lying tongue,
    Hands that shed innocent blood,
    A heart that devises wicked plans,
    Feet that are swift in running to evil,
    A false witness who speaks lies,
    And one who sows discord among brethren.

    For there are seven abominations in his heart;
    Though his hatred is covered by deceit,
    His wickedness will be revealed before the assembly.

     
  • Proverbs 26:28
    A lying tongue hates those who are crushed by it,
    And a flattering mouth works ruin.
     
  • Jeremiah 9:3-6
    “ And like their bow they have bent their tongues for lies.
    They are not valiant for the truth on the earth.
    For they proceed from evil to evil,
    And they do not know Me,” says the LORD.
    “ Everyone take heed to his neighbor,
    And do not trust any brother;
    For every brother will utterly supplant,
    And every neighbor will walk with slanderers.
    Everyone will deceive his neighbor,
    And will not speak the truth;
    They have taught their tongue to speak lies;
    They weary themselves to commit iniquity.
    Your dwelling place is in the midst of deceit;
    Through deceit they refuse to know Me,” says the LORD.
     
  • Ephesians 4:25
    Therefore, putting away lying, “ Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor,” for we are members of one another.
