Proverbs 19:9

IRV

பொய்சாட்சிக்காரன் தண்டனைக்குத் தப்பமாட்டான்; பொய்களைப் பேசுகிறவன் நாசமடைவான்.

Matthew Henry

Verse 9

Proverbs 19:9

Here is, 1. A repetition of what was said before (Pro 19:5), for we have need to be again and again warned of the danger of the sin of lying and false-witness-bearing, since nothing is of more fatal consequence. 2. An addition to it in one word; there it was said, He that speaks lies shall not escape, and intimated that he shall be punished. Here it is said, His punishment shall be such as will be his destruction: he shall perish; the lies he forged against others will be his own ruin. It is a damning destroying sin.
