5. Formal Translation Each one deceives his neighbor, and they do not speak the truth; they have trained their tongue to speak falsehood; they wear themselves out to commit iniquity. |
5. Dynamic Translation Everyone betrays his neighbor, and no one speaks what is true. They drill their tongues to tell lies and exhaust themselves in wrongdoing. |
