Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord.

Verse 14 is found in chapter 6 of Proverbs. The description of the wicked man brings gestures, words, heart, and actions together in an integrated portrayal of deception. The list culminates in seven things the Lord hates, including pride, lying, violence against the innocent, wicked plans, and sowing discord among brothers. The structure shows that Proverbs does not separate intention from conduct: both form one pattern of wickedness.

trachtet allezeit Böses und Verkehrtes in seinem Herzen und richtet Hader an.
Perversidades hay en su corazón, anda pensando mal en todo tiempo; Enciende rencillas.
La perversité est dans son coeur, Il médite le mal en tout temps, Il excite des querelles.
Egli ha delle perversità nel suo cuore, Egli macchina del male in ogni tempo; Egli commette contese.
Há no seu coração perversidade, todo o tempo maquina mal; anda semeando contendas.
存心乖謬, 常設惡謀,散播紛爭。
