His own iniquities shall capture the wicked, and he shall be held with the cords of his sin.

The righteousness of the perfect shall make his way right, but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness.

The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them, but traitors shall be taken in their lust.

The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips, but the just shall come out of trouble.

The steps of his strength shall be shortened, and his own counsel shall cast him down.

The snare takes him by the heel, and the noose takes hold of him.

Upon the wicked He will rain snares, fire and brimstone; and a horrible tempest shall be the portion of their cup.

And He shall be a sanctuary for you; but a stone of stumbling, and a rock of falling to both the houses of Israel; and a trap and a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

And many among them shall stumble and fall and be broken, and be snared, and be taken.

and that they may come to their senses and escape the snare of the devil, having been taken captive by him to do his will.

Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.

The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous; the right hand of Jehovah works with might.

I will also clothe her priests with salvation, and her saints shall shout aloud for joy.

through whom also we have access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and rejoice on the hope of the glory of God.

And not only that, but we also exult in afflictions, knowing that affliction produces perseverance;

My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials,

whom having not seen you love. Though now you do not see Him yet, believing, you rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory,

And these things we write to you that your joy may be full.
