Proverbs 29:6 - Forerunner Commentary

Proverbs 29:6

4 The king establishes the land by justice,
But he who receives bribes overthrows it.

5 A man who ^aflatters his neighbor
Spreads a net for his feet.

6 By transgression an evil man is snared,
But the righteous sings and rejoices.

7 The righteous ^aconsiders the cause of the poor,
But the wicked does not understand such knowledge.

8 Scoffers ^aset a city aflame,
But wise men turn away wrath.
