Though his hatred is concealed by deception,
his evil will be revealed in the assembly.
Proverbs 26:26 (CSB)
According to verse 24, the person being talked about here is a "hateful person." In other translations, he is known as "an enemy."
Whatever you call him, he is no stranger.
- He is the government official who signs a treaty he never intends to honor.
- He is the politician who promises unity while targeting different groups.
- He is the friendly, helpful neighbor who gossips behind your back.
- He is the family member who excuses his passive-aggressive comments as jokes.
You know what else he is? He is doomed.
The legislative body will launch an investigation. The church will instigate accountability. The family reunion will become an intervention.
The truth will come out, and, as promised, set you free. That won't necessarily be pleasant for "the hateful person," but it will be a little bit of justice brightening the corner where you are.

Truth is...Present circumstances are never the end of the story.
