Bible Verses about Lying
- For, Whoever would love life
and see good days
must keep their tongue from evil
and their lips from deceitful speech.
They must turn from evil and do good;
they must seek peace and pursue it. - The one whose walk is blameless,
who does what is righteous,
who speaks the truth from their heart;
whose tongue utters no slander,
who does no wrong to a neighbor,
and casts no slur on others. - Save me, Lord,
from lying lips
and from deceitful tongues. - He went on: “What comes out of a person is what defiles them. For it is from within, out of a person’s heart, that evil thoughts come—sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, greed, malice, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, arrogance and folly. All these evils come from inside and defile a person.”
- The Lord detests lying lips,
but he delights in people who are trustworthy. - A perverse person stirs up conflict,

and your lips from telling lies. - Whoever walks in integrity walks securely,

evil behavior and perverse speech. - Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me.
