Lying Is Prohibited

"...Do not lie..." “Do not swear falsely by My name.” (Leviticus, 19:11-12)

You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor. (Exodus, 20:16, Deuteronomy, 5:20)

Have nothing to do with a false charge and do not put an innocent or honest person to death, for I will not acquit the guilty. (Exodus, 23:7)

Do not spread false reports. Do not help a wicked man by being a malicious witness. Do not follow the crowd in doing wrong. When you give testimony in a lawsuit, do not pervert justice by siding with the crowd...(Exodus, 23:1-2)

...if he finds lost property and lies about it, or if he swears falsely, or if he commits any such sin that people may do . . . he thus sins and becomes guilty... (Leviticus, 6:3-4)

The remnant…will do no wrong; they will speak no lies, nor will deceit be found in their mouths. They will eat and lie down and no one will make them afraid. (Zephaniah, 3:13)
