Psalms 12:2

They speak vanity every one with his neighbor: with flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak.
Read Chapter 12

Augustine of Hippo

AD 430
3. "He hath talked vanity each man to his neighbour" (ver. 2). By neighbour we must understand every man: for that there is no one with whom we should work evil; "and the love of our neighbour worketh no evil." "Deceitful lips, with a heart and a heart they have spoken evil things." The repetition, "with a heart and a heart," signifies a double heart.

George Leo Haydock

AD 1849
Deceitful. Hebrew, "flattering "and of course not fee from deceit. (Berthier) "That man I hate, e'en as the gates of hell, Who thinks one thing, and will another tell. "(Homer, Iliad I.) None can have (Haydock) confidence in a liar, St. James i. 8. (Calmet)

Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation - 2 Peter 1:20
