Book of Proverbs
(Traditionally attributed to King Solomon, the Book of Proverbs was written, compiled and edited between the 10th and 5th centuries BCE)
“There are six things that the LORD hates,
seven that are an abomination to him:
haughty eyes, a lying tongue,
and hands that shed innocent blood,
a heart that devises wicked plans,
feet that hurry to run to evil,
a lying witness who testifies falsely,
and one who sows discord in a family.”
- Proverbs 6.16-19 (New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition translation, 2021).
