Proverbs 29:6-8

Modern English Version

⁶ In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare,
    but the righteous sing and rejoice.

⁷ The righteous considers the cause of the poor,
    but the wicked regards not to know it.

⁸ Scornful men bring a city into a snare,
    but wise men turn away wrath.
