The transgression

The evil-doer will be taken in the net of his crimes, and prisoned in the cords of his sin.

The righteousness of the good man will make his way straight, but the sin of the evil-doer will be the cause of his fall.

In the sin of the lips is a net which takes the sinner, but the upright man will come out of trouble.

The steps of his strength become short, and by his design destruction overtakes him.

On the evil-doer he will send down fire and flames, and a burning wind; with these will their cup be full.

And he will be for a holy place: but for a stone of falling and a rock of trouble to the two houses of Israel, and to the men of Jerusalem, for a net in which they may be taken.

And so they may get themselves free from the net of the Evil One, being made the prisoners of the Lord's servant, for the purpose of God.

But

Light is shining on the lovers of righteousness, and for the upright in heart there is joy.

The sound of joy and salvation is in the tents of the upright; the right hand of the Lord does works of power.

Through whom, in the same way, we have been able by faith to come to this grace in which we now are; and let us have joy in hope of the glory of God.

Let it be all joy to you, my brothers, when you undergo tests of every sort;

To whom your love is given, though you have not seen him; and the faith which you have in him, though you do not see him now, gives you joy greater than words and full of glory:

And we are writing these things to you so that our joy may be made complete.
