It is true that the Bible does not explicitly or precisely describe the seven deadly sins as described in the Middle Ages (i.e. pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, etc.); however, Proverbs 6, 16-19 does describe the seven things the Lord hates as a "proud look, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that deviseth wicked imaginations, feet that be swift in running to mischief, a false witness, and he that soweth discord among brethren (see the King James Study Bible, Thomas Nelson Publishers, Nashville, 1988), p. 968. The King James Study Bible prefaces this aforementioned Proverbs section with the phrase "Seven deadly sins."  The  Douay-Rheims Bible describes the six things which the Lord hates and the seventh one with his soul detesteth as "Haughty eyes, a lying tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart that deviseth wicked plots, feet that are swift to run into mischief, a deceitful witness that uttereth lies, and him that soweth discord among brethren." (See The Douay-Rheims The Holy Bible Loreto Publications, 2004), pp. 586-587.

I would consider amending you Wikipedia text to say that the seven deadly sins described in the Middle Ages are not explicitly mentioned in the Bible, although the Bible (in Proverbs 6) does single out one of the seven deadly sins as described in the Middle Ages, this being pride, or a proud look or haughty eyes, as one of the seven things that the Lord hates. 69.138.246.113 (talk) 02:45, 30 December 2019 (UTC)
