P. 157

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:
