Proverbs 20:17-19

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁷ The bread of lying is sweet to a man: but afterwards his mouth shall be filled with gravel.

¹⁸ Designs are strengthened by counsels: and wars are to be managed by governments.

¹⁹ Meddle not with him that revealeth secrets, and walketh deceitfully, and openeth wide his lips.
