Proverbs 16:28-30
Revised Standard Version
28 A perverse man spreads strife,
and a whisperer separates close friends.
29 A man of violence entices his neighbor
and leads him in a way that is not good.
30 He who winks his eyes plans[a] perverse things,
he who compresses his lips brings evil to pass.
