Here "walking" is an idiom for living. AT: "every neighbor slanders one another" or "every neighbor is a slanderer" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-idiom]])
|

# Each man mocks his neighbor and does not speak the truth

"All of the people mock each other, and they do not tell the truth"
|

# Their tongues teach deceitful things
|

Here people are represented by their "tongues" to emphasize their speech. AT: "They teach deceitful things" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-synecdoche]])
