Verse 17 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.
