Narcissists will ask a lot of questions about your family and activities in order to be able to judge you and pass on information to others in the form of half truths. Half truths feel alright with the narcissist because as long as they have told some of the truth they feel justified in adding their guesses and opinions about whatever you told them.
Proverbs 19:9
"A false witness will not go unpunished, and he who breathes out lies will perish."
Proverbs 14:5
"A faithful witness does not lie, but a false witness breathes out lies."
Proverbs 26:23-28
"Like the glaze covering an earthen vessel are fervent lips with an evil heart. Whoever hates disguises himself with his lips and harbors deceit in his heart; when he speaks graciously, believe him not, for there are seven abominations in his heart; though his hatred be covered with deception, his wickedness will be exposed in the assembly. Whoever digs a pit will fall into it, and a stone will come back on him who starts it rolling. ..."
Our response to the abuse of the narcissist is addressed in Romans 12:19 and 2 Timothy 3:5
Romans 12:19
"Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.”
2 Timothy 3:5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Turn away from such as these!
