  • 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 15:1-5
    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;
    In whose eyes a vile person is despised,
    But he honors those who fear the LORD;
    He who swears to his own hurt and does not change;
    He who does not put out his money at usury,
    Nor does he take a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things shall never be moved.

  • Proverbs 26:23-26
    Fervent lips with a wicked heart
    Are like earthenware covered with silver dross.
    He who hates, disguises it with his lips,
    And lays up deceit within himself;
    When he speaks kindly, do not believe him,
    For there are seven abominations in his heart;
    Though his hatred is covered by deceit,
    His wickedness will be revealed before the assembly.

    Therefore the Lord said:
    " Inasmuch as these people draw near with their mouths
    And honor Me with their lips,
    But have removed their hearts far from Me,
    And their fear toward Me is taught by the commandment of men,
    Therefore, behold, I will again do a marvelous work
    Among this people,
    A marvelous work and a wonder;
    For the wisdom of their wise men shall perish,
    And the understanding of their prudent men shall be hidden."
    Woe to those who seek deep to hide their counsel far from the LORD,
    And their works are in the dark;
    They say, "Who sees us?" and, "Who knows us?"

     
  • Deuteronomy 19:16-21
    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. And those who remain shall hear and fear, and hereafter they shall not again commit such evil among you. Your eye shall not pity: life shall be for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
