Flattery/ honey and milk under one's tongue/ a smooth and honied tongue

One who speaks flattering words with a smooth tongue; a deceiver who utters smooth speeches but harbors evil intentions in his heart.

("Let your lips drip nectar, my bride; honey and milk are under your tongue" - Song of Songs 4:11, and similarly: "Do not trust his voice when he shows grace; for seven abominations are in his heart" - Proverbs 26:20, and also: "Impure souls sanctify themselves; seven abominations and eight creeping things are in their heart" - H.N. Biyalik / 'I Saw You Again at the End of Your Hand'.)
