25 The (A)fear of man [a]brings a snare,
But one who (B)trusts in the Lord will be protected.
26 (C)Many seek the ruler’s [b]favor,
But (D)justice for mankind comes from the Lord.
27 An (E)unjust person is an abomination to the righteous,
And one who is (F)upright in the way is an abomination to the wicked.
