"A thief is better than a man that is always lying: but both of them shall inherit destruction."
Nel contesto
25There is that for bashfulness promiseth to his friend, and maketh him his enemy for nothing.
26A lie is a foul blot in a man, and yet it will be continually in the mouth of men without discipline.
27A thief is better than a man that is always lying: but both of them shall inherit destruction.
28The manners of lying men are without honour: and their confusion is with them without ceasing.
29A wise man shall advance himself with his words, and a prudent man shall please the great ones.
