Proverbs 17:20

עִקֶּשׁ לֵ֭ב לֹ֣א יִמְצָא טּ֑וֹב וְנֶהְפָּ֥ךְ בִּ֝לְשׁוֹנ֗וֹ יִפּ֥וֹל בְּרָעָֽה׃
King James Version (KJV)

He that hath a froward heart findeth no good: and he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief.

Modern English

A man of crooked heart does not discover good, and one with a dishonest tongue falls into calamity.

Hebrew

עִקֶּשׁ לֵ֭ב לֹ֣א יִמְצָא טּ֑וֹב וְנֶהְפָּ֥ךְ בִּ֝לְשׁוֹנ֗וֹ יִפּ֥וֹל בְּרָעָֽה׃
