For [there is] no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part [is] very wickedness; their throat [is] an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.
Complete Jewish Bible:
For in their mouths there is nothing sincere, within them are calamities, their throats are open tombs, they flatter with their tongues.
Berean Standard Bible:
For not a word they speak can be trusted; destruction lies within them. Their throats are open graves; their tongues practice deceit.
American Standard Version:
For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; Their inward part is very wickedness; Their throat is an open sepulchre; They flatter with their tongue.
And they bend their tongues [like] their bow [for] lies: but they are not valiant for the truth upon the earth; for they proceed from evil to evil, and they know not me, saith the LORD.
Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden [part] thou shalt make me to know wisdom.
