Today's Favorite Verse: Job 20:12-13
"Though wickedness be sweet in his mouth, though he hide it under his tongue;
Though he spare it, and forsake it not; but keep it still within his mouth:"
Job's friend Zophar implies this is Job's problem, but it's not. Though what he says can be apply to the wicked. Sin can become sweet to them even though they confess it not. It can also be held in the mouth out of view to be secretly savored and enjoyed.
“Oh, what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive”. (Sir Walter Scott, "Marmion")
