Proverbs 29:6

All About Life

⁵
A man who flatters his neighbor [with smooth words intending to do harm]
Is spreading a net for his own feet.
⁶ 
By his wicked plan an evil man is trapped,
But the righteous man sings and rejoices [for his plan brings good things to him].
⁷
The righteous man cares for the rights of the poor,
But the wicked man has no interest in such knowledge.
