Lie to me

Do you ever look into someone's eyes and are able to see right through them? With no words spoken and not even an ounce of silence you already hear and feel their being. While their gaze is fixed upon your soul, quietness pours in and becomes you. As if that moment you have become one. When the lips begin to move you pay no attention to the sounds that pour through their mouth. You have already reached the conclusion of knowing the difference between a lie or the truth. You know everything they hold.

I have stressed through previous blogs about the truth. But the lies need to be addressed. The opposite of the truth is to lie to me. What is the definition of a lie?
LIE:
1. a deliberately false statement; an intentional falsehood.
2. a statement intended to deceive, even if literally true; a half truth

Psalm 12

1Help, Lord, for the godly are no more;
the faithful have vanished from among men.
2Everyone lies to his neighbor;
their flattering lips speak with deception.
3May the Lord cut off all flattering lips
and every boastful tongue
4that says, “We will triumph with our tongues;
we own our lipsb—who is our master?”
5“Because of the oppression of the weak
and the groaning of the needy,
I will now arise,” says the Lord.
“I will protect them from those who malign them.”
6And the words of the Lord are flawless,
like silver refined in a furnace of clay,
purified seven times.
7O Lord, you will keep us safe
and protect us from such people forever.
8The wicked freely strut about
when what is vile is honored among men.
