“Though wickedness be sweet in his mouth, though he hide it under his tongue;”
"Though wickedness is sweet in his mouth, though he hides it under his tongue." The wicked person savors wickedness; he conceals it, keeps it hidden. The verse suggests that wickedness is pleasurable, which makes its ultimate punishment more severe. The temporary pleasure cannot justify the final price.
