You who practice deceit, your tongue plots destruction; it is like a sharpened razor. You love evil rather than good, falsehood rather than speaking the truth.
You who practice deceit
Psalm 50:19 You use your mouth for evil and harness your tongue to deceit.
your tongue plots destruction

it is like a sharpened razor

1 Samuel 12:25 "Yet if you persist in doing evil, both you and your king will perish.

John 3:20 Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed.
falsehood rather than speaking the truth
