Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion
וַ֝הֲפִתִּ֗יתָ בִּשְׂפָתֶֽיךָ
and,?,deceive in/on/at/with,lips,your
The writer is using the question form to emphasize what a person should not do. If you would not use the question form for this purpose in your language, you could translate this as a statement or an exclamation. Alternate translation: “And you should surely not deceive with your lips!”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
בִּשְׂפָתֶֽיךָ
in/on/at/with,lips,your
Here, lips refers to what people say by using their lips. See how you translated the same use of lips in 10:18. Alternate translation: “by what you say”
