Ver. 5. They have taught their tongues to ſpeak lyes] They are Artiſts at it, and can tack one lye to another very handſomely, Pſal. 119.69. See the Note.

Aliud in labris, aliud in fibri[illegible: 1 letter].Ver. 6. Thine habitation is in the miost of deceit] i. e. Of deceitful perſons: who have honey in their tongues, but gall in their hearts.

They refuſe to know me] Ʋt liberius peccent, libenter ignorant, they are wilfully ignorant, 2 Pet. 3.3, 5. ſo wedded and wedg'd they are to their fraudulent practices.
