He who [slyly] winks his eyes does so to plot perverse things;And he who compresses his lips [as if in a secret signal] brings evil to pass.
He shutteth his eyes to devise froward things: moving his lips he bringeth evil to pass.
A shifty eye betrays an evil intention; a clenched jaw signals trouble ahead.
He who winks his eyes does so to devise perverse things;He who compresses his lips brings evil to pass.
Whoever winks with their eye is planning to do wrong. Whoever closes their lips tightly is up to no good.
Whoever winks with their eye is plotting perversity; whoever purses their lips is bent on evil.
Whoever winks with their eye is plotting perversity; whoever purses their lips is bent on evil.
With narrowed eyes, people plot evil; with a smirk, they plan their mischief.
