Proverbs 6:16-20

Proverbs 6:16-20 NLT

There are six things the LORD hates— no, seven things he detests: haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that kill the innocent, a heart that plots evil, feet that race to do wrong, a false witness who pours out lies, a person who sows discord in a family. My son, obey your father’s commands, and don’t neglect your mother’s instruction.

no, seven things he detests:
haughty eyes,

and don’t neglect your mother’s instruction.
