Telling a Lie

Truthful lips endure forever, but a lying tongue lasts only a moment.

Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to his neighbor, for we are all members of one another.

A false witness will not go unpunished, and one who utters lies will not escape.

You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.

Do not lie to one another, since you have taken off the old self with its practices,

…and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.

A false witness will not go unpunished, and one who pours out lies will perish.
