“He that hateth dissembleth with his lips, and layeth up deceit within him; dissembleth: or, is known”
Proverbs 26:24 (KJV)
Commentary on Proverbs 26:24
He that hateth dissembleth with his lips (יְנַכֵּר, yenakker—disguises, makes himself unrecognizable) reveals the psychology of hidden malice. The hater actively conceals animosity behind pleasant speech, a sin compounding hatred with deception. Layeth up deceit within him pictures the heart as a storehouse of treachery, collecting grievances and plotting harm while projecting friendliness. This internal-external disconnect defines the hypocrite—smooth words masking murderous intent (cf. Psalm 55:21).
