Rashi

1040–1105 Jewish

For there is no sincerity in his mouth They appear as friends but they are enemies. there is malice in their heart Their thoughts are deceitful. their throat is an open grave to swallow others’ toil, like a grave that swallows up the body. they make their tongue smooth with words of flattery.
