Lead me, O LORD, in Thy righteousness because of
mine enemies; make Thy way straight before my face. For there is no faithfulness in their mouth;
their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they
flatter with their tongue. Psalm,
Chapter 5, verses 8-9.
People’s flattery of us does not always reflect
their true intent.
Here is a related passage:
*Surely men of
low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: to be laid in the
balance, they are altogether lighter than vanity. Psalm, Chapter 62, verse 9.
