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.

are spreading nets for their feet.(A)
6 Evildoers are snared by their own sin,(B)
but the righteous shout for joy and are glad.

but the wicked have no such concern.
