Proverbs 29:5-7

EasyEnglish Bible

⁵ If you always praise your friends with sweet words,
    that will be a trap that you walk into yourself.
⁶ The sin of an evil person becomes a trap that catches him.
    But a righteous person sings with joy.
⁷ Righteous people want poor people to receive justice.
    But wicked people do not understand things like that.
