<p>Here is, 1. A repetition of what was said before (<a class="bibleref" title="Prov.18.5" href="/passage/?search=Prov.18.5">Prov. 18:5</a>), 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, <i>He that speaks lies shall not escape</i>, and intimated that he shall be punished. Here it is said, His punishment shall be such as will be his destruction: he <i>shall perish</i>; the lies he forged against others will be his own ruin. It is a damning destroying sin.</p>
