You will not be caught in the whirlpool of troubles, repentance, and sorrow. To tell a lie is a great sin. He who utters falsehood loses the faith of other persons. People will not believe him even if he speaks the truth. The habit of telling lies becomes deep-rooted by repetition of lies.
Man tells several lies to cover up one lie.
A lie concealed by another lie leads to more lies. A sin concealed by another sin leads to more sins. A liar is a coward. Uttering falsehood is a certain mark of cowardice. Speak the truth.
