# Lying lips are an abomination to Yahweh

"Yahweh strongly hates lying lips." See how you translated "abomination" in [Proverbs 3:2](../03..02.md).

# Lying lips

"Lips" are either a metonym for the words a person says or a synecdoche for the person himself. Alternate translation: "Lies" or "People who tell lies" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]])
