Disguises

Hermippus, fragment 3 Kassel and Austin (tr. Ian C. Storey):
You seem to have the speech and face of a lamb, but inside you are no different from a serpent.

τὴν μὲν διάλεκτον καὶ τὸ πρόσωπον ἀμνίου
ἔχειν δοκεῖς, τὰ δ᾿ ἔνδον οὐδὲν διαφέρεις
δράκοντος.
Matthew 7:15 (King James Version):
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

προσέχετε ἀπὸ τῶν ψευδοπροφητῶν, οἵτινες ἔρχονται πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἐν ἐνδύμασιν προβάτων, ἔσωθεν δέ εἰσιν λύκοι ἅρπαγες.
