aAnd thou seest that we know that thy plan was a very subtle plan, as to the subtlety of the Ddevil, for to lie and to deceive this people, that thou mightest set them against us, to revile us and to cast us out.

Simple English

You see that we know your plan was sneaky, like the Devil’s tricks. You wanted to lie and trick these people. You wanted them to turn against us and push us out.

Paraphrase

We know your plan. It was a clever scheme, right out of the devil’s playbook. You wanted to lie and deceive these people so they’d turn against us, mock us, and drive us out.
