Deceit is in the hearts of those who plot evil
Proverbs 6:12-15 A troublemaker and a villain, who goes about with a corrupt mouth, who winks maliciously with his eye, signals with his feet and motions with his fingers, who plots evil with deceit in his heart--he always stirs up conflict. Therefore disaster will overtake him in an instant; he will suddenly be destroyed--without remedy.
Proverbs 1:30-31 "Since they would not accept my (Wisdom's) advice and spurned my rebuke, they will eat the fruit of their ways and be filled with the fruit of their schemes."
Proverbs 24:1-2 Do not envy the wicked, do not desire their company; for their hearts plot violence, and their lips talk about making trouble.

Matthew 5:9 "Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God."
