Proverbs 24:8

8. He that deviseth to do evil A master of mischief. “Mischief and wrong are his ownership and property.” Wordsworth. “Inventors of evil things.” Romans 1:30. The inventor or discoverer of a good thing is a benefactor of the race; but he who spends his time in inventing that which will injure his fellow man is the greatest of curses a fiend incarnate. The same is true of those who follow, though they may not invent, a business or calling which is destructive to the health, life, and morals of their fellow beings. Such is the manufacture and traffic in intoxicating drinks, the making and vending of obscene literature, etc.
