A wicked generation have lofty eyes, and exalt themselves with their eyelids.

The sinner has provoked the Lord: according to the abundance of his pride he will not seek after [Him]; God is not before him.

For You shall save the lowly people, and shall humble the eyes of the proud.

Therefore pride has possessed them; they have clothed themselves with their injustice and ungodliness.

They have taken counsel and spoken in wickedness; they have uttered unrighteousness loftily.

Him that secretly speaks against his neighbor, him have I driven from [me]; he that is proud in look and insatiable in heart- with him I have not eaten.

A Song of Degrees. O Lord, my heart is not exalted, neither have my eyes been [haughtily] raised: neither have I exercised myself in great [matters], nor in things too wonderful for me.

For the eyes of the Lord are high, but man is low; and the haughtiness of men shall be brought low, and the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day.

Wherefore now their glory has been brought low, and the shame of their countenance has withstood them, and they have proclaimed their sin as Sodom, and made it manifest.

Thus says the Lord, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and have walked with an outstretched neck, and winking with their eyes, and jingling with their feet, at the same time drawing their garments in trains, and at the same time sporting with their feet;

Likewise, younger [people], subject yourselves to [the] elders. And all of you be subject to one another, and be clothed with humility, because "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble."

Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord, but he that deals faithfully is accepted by Him.

A faithful witness does not lie, but an unjust witness kindles falsehoods.

A lying tongue hates the truth, and an unguarded mouth causes tumults.

You will destroy all that speak falsehood: the Lord abhors the bloody and deceitful man.

Deliver my soul, O Lord, from unjust lips, and from a deceitful tongue.

What should be given to you, and what should be added to you, for [your] crafty tongue?

Hear the word of the Lord, you children of Israel: for the Lord [has] a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor mercy, nor knowledge of God in the land.

Cursing, and lying, and murder, and theft, and adultery bound in the land, and they mingle blood with blood.

You are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father you desire to do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and has not stood in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he tells a lie, he speaks from his own [resources], for he is a liar, and the father of lies.

But outside are dogs and drug users and fornicators and murderers and idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices a lie.

If they should exhort you, saying, Come with us, partake in blood, and let us unjustly hide the just man in the earth:

Cursed is he whosoever shall have taken a bribe to slay an innocent man. And all the people shall say, So be it.

Moreover he shed innocent blood, and filled Jerusalem with innocent blood, and the Lord would not pardon [it].

When you stretch forth your hands, I will turn away My eyes from you; and though you make many supplications, I will not hearken to you; for your hands are full of blood.

For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with sins; your lips also have spoken iniquity, and your tongue meditates unrighteousness.

They have hatched vipers' eggs, and weave a spider's web; and he that is going to eat of their eggs, having crushed an addled egg, has found also in it a basilisk.
