18 Like a maniac shooting flaming arrows of death
18 As a mad man who casteth firebrands,
18 Like a madman who throws firebrands, arrows, and death
18 People who shrug off deliberate deceptions, saying, "I didn't mean it, I was only joking,"
18 Like a madman who throws firebrands, arrows, and death,
18 Just as damaging as a madman shooting a deadly weapon
19 is one who deceives their neighbor and says, "I was only joking!"
19 So is the man that deceiveth his neighbour, and saith, Am not I in sport?
19 is the man who deceives his neighbor and says, "I am only joking!"
19 Are worse than careless campers who walk away from smoldering campfires.
19 Is the man who deceives his neighbor, And says, "I was only joking!"
19 is someone who lies to a friend and then says, "I was only joking."
