deviseth

He deviseth mischief upon his bed; he setteth himself in a way that is not good; he abhorreth not evil.

The tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.

Frowardness is in his heart, he deviseth mischief continually; he soweth discord.

An heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief,

A man’s heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps.

He that deviseth to do evil shall be called a mischievous person.

The instruments also of the churl are evil: he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the poor with lying words, even when the needy speaketh right.

But the liberal deviseth liberal things; and by liberal things shall he stand.

And when he had spoken this unto them, he prayed thus: O Jesu who hast woven this crown with thy weaving, who hast joined together these many blossoms into the unfading flower of thy countenance, who hast sown in them these words: thou only tender of thy servants, and physician who healest freely: only doer of good and despiser of none, only merciful and lover of men, only saviour and righteous, only seer of all, who art in all and everywhere present and containing all things and filling all things: Christ Jesu, God, Lord, that with thy gifts and thy mercy shelterest them that trust in thee, that knowest clearly the wiles and the assaults of him that is everywhere our adversary, which he deviseth against us: do thou only, O Lord, succour thy servants by thy visitation. Even so, Lord.

And if it be a servant it stirreth him up against his master, and with every affliction it deviseth against him, if possibly he can be put to death.
