Proverbs 16:30
He shutteth his eyes to devise froward things: moving his lips he bringeth evil to pass.
KJV
Qui attonitis oculis cogitat prava, mordens labia sua perficit malum.
Vulgate
στηρίζων δὲ ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ διαλογίζεται διεστραμμένα, ὁρίζει δὲ τοῖς χείλεσιν αὐτοῦ πάντα τὰ κακά, οὗτος κάμινός ἐστιν κακίας.
LXX
He that shutteth his eyes, it is to devise perverse things: He that compresseth his lips bringeth evil to pass.
