Exegesis
A parallel clause introduced by the conjunction veyaphiach {וְיָפִיחַ | wə-yā-p̄î-aḥ} in the Hiphil stem employs breath imagery for active speech, followed by the Qal imperfect yoved {יֹאבֵד | yō-ʼă-ḏ}. This chiastic parallelism highlights the inevitability of judgment for both passive and active perpetrators.
In context — Proverbs 19:9
A false witness will not be acquitted , and he who breathes out lies will perish.
