PROVERBS 12:14-22
He who speaks truth tells what is right, but a false witness, deceit. 18There is one who speaks rashly like the thrusts of a sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing. 19Truthful lips will be established forever, but a lying tongue is only for a moment. 20Deceit is in the heart of those who devise evil, but counselors of peace have joy. 21No harm befalls the righteous, but the wicked are filled with trouble. 22Lying lips are an abomination to the LORD, but those who deal faithfully are His delight.
JOHN 8:44
You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies.

PSALM 15:1-4
O LORD, who may abide in Your tent? Who may dwell on Your holy hill? 2He who walks with integrity, and works righteousness, and speaks truth in his heart. 3He does not slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his neighbor, nor takes up a reproach against his friend; 4in whose eyes a reprobate is despised, but who honors those who fear the LORD; he swears to his own hurt and does not change.
PROVERBS 12:19
Truthful lips will be established forever, but a lying tongue is only for a moment.
