Proverbs 29:25-27

American Standard Version

²⁵ The fear of man bringeth a snare;
But whoso putteth his trust in Jehovah ^[a]shall be safe.
²⁶ Many seek the ruler’s favor;
But a man’s judgment cometh from Jehovah.
²⁷ An unjust man is an abomination to the righteous;
And he that is upright in the way is an abomination to the wicked.
