Proverbs12:22
22. Lying lips are an a bomination to the LORD, but they that deal truly are his delight.
That speak and act sincerely and truly. He implies that although lying lips alone are sufficient to purchase Gods hatred, yet truth in a mans speech is not sufficient to procure Gods favour, unless there be also Truth and Justice in his actions.
