3 The lip of truth shall be established forever:
          but a lying tongue is but for a moment. Deceit
          is in the heart of those who imagine evil, but to
          the  counselors  of  peace  is  joy.  No  evil  shall
          happen  to  the  just,  but  the  wicked  shall  be
          filled  with  mischief.  Lying  lips  are  an

          abomination  to  the  LORD:  but  they  that
          deal truly are his delight.


          4 Be renewed in the spirit of your mind;
          and  put  on  the  new  nature,  which  is  created
          after  God  in  righteousness  and  true  holiness.
          And put away lying, speak every man truth with
          his  neighbor:  for  we  are  members  one  of
          another.  5  Do  not  lie  to  one  another,  seeing

          that  you  have  put  off  the  old  nature  with  its
          deeds; and have put on the new nature, which
          is renewed in knowledge after the image of him
          that created him.

          Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and
          beloved,   bowels    of   mercies,    kindness,
          humbleness of mind, meekness, long-suffering;

          forbearing  one  another,  and  forgiving  one
          another,  if  any  man  quarrel  with  any:
