28 Be not a witness against thy neighbour without cause; and deceive not with thy lips.
28 Do not testify against your neighbor without cause- would you use your lips to mislead?
28 Be not a witness against your neighbor without cause, and do not deceive with your lips.
28 Don't talk about your neighbors behind their backs - no slander or gossip, please.
28 Do not be a witness against your neighbor without cause, For would you deceive with your lips?
28 Don't testify against your neighbors without cause; don't lie about them.
