Proverbs 6:12-15:
"A naughty person, a wicked man, walketh with a froward mouth. He winketh with his eyes, he speaketh with his feet, he teacheth with his fingers; Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord. Therefore shall his calamity come suddenly; suddenly shall he be broken without remedy."
He not only speaks, but walks with a froward tongue, MAKING A CONSTANT TRADE OF slandering his neighbors, and spreading dissension.
