They bend their tongue like a bow; falsehood and not truth has grown strong in the land; for they proceed from evil to evil, and they do not know me, declares the Lord.

Everyone deceives his neighbor, and no one speaks the truth; they have taught their tongue to speak lies; they weary themselves committing iniquity.
in hope of eternal life, which God, who never lies, promised before the ages began
through the insincerity of liars whose consciences are seared,

And if the ear should say, “Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body,” that would not make it any less a part of the body.
But Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back for yourself part of the proceeds of the land? While it remained unsold, did it not remain your own? And after it was sold, was it not at your disposal? Why is it that you have contrived this deed in your heart? You have not lied to man but to God.”

“Thus says the Lord of hosts: The fast of the fourth month and the fast of the fifth and the fast of the seventh and the fast of the tenth shall be to the house of Judah seasons of joy and gladness and cheerful feasts. Therefore love truth and peace.
there is swearing, lying, murder, stealing, and committing adultery; they break all bounds, and bloodshed follows bloodshed.
For he said, “Surely they are my people, children who will not deal falsely.” And he became their Savior.
the elder and honored man is the head, and the prophet who teaches lies is the tail;
The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a fleeting vapor and a snare of death.

Put false ways far from me and graciously teach me your law!
