Proverbs 17:20 He who has a crooked mind finds no good, And he who is perverted in his language falls into evil. The crooked heart will not prosper; the lying tongue tumbles into trouble. He that hath a froward heart findeth no good: and he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief. The one with a perverse heart never has anything good to say, and the chronic liar tumbles into constant trouble. He who has a crooked mind finds no good, And he who is perverted in his language falls into evil. A bad motive can’t achieve a good end; double-talk brings you double trouble. A person with an evil heart will find no success, and the person whose words are evil will get into trouble. He that hath a wayward heart findeth no good; And he that hath a perverse tongue falleth into mischief. One whose heart is corrupt does not prosper; one whose tongue is perverse falls into trouble. A man of crooked heart does not discover good, and one with a dishonest tongue falls into calamity.
