⁵ He that speaketh flattery to his friends, even the eyes of his children shall fail.

²¹ Let me not, I pray you, accept any man's person, neither let me give flattering titles unto man.

²² For I know not to give flattering titles; in so doing my maker would soon take me away.

⁸ Lead me, O Lord, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way straight before my face.

⁹ 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.

² They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak.

³ The Lord shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things:

² For he flattereth himself in his own eyes, until his iniquity be found to be hateful.

¹³ This their way is their folly: yet their posterity approve their sayings. Selah.
