'Transgression' in the Bible

In the abundance of words transgression ceaseth not, And whoso is restraining his lips is wise.

The desire of the righteous is only good, The hope of the wicked is transgression.

In transgression of the lips is the snare of the wicked, And the righteous goeth out from distress.

Whoso is covering transgression is seeking love, And whoso is repeating a matter Is separating a familiar friend.

Whoso is loving transgression is loving debate, Whoso is making high his entrance is seeking destruction.

The wisdom of a man hath deferred his anger, And his glory is to pass over transgression.

By the transgression of a land many are its heads. And by an intelligent man, Who knoweth right -- it is prolonged.

Whoso is robbing his father, or his mother, And is saying, 'It is not transgression,' A companion he is to a destroyer.

In the transgression of the evil is a snare, And the righteous doth sing and rejoice.

In the multiplying of the wicked transgression multiplieth, And the righteous on their fall do look.

An angry man stirreth up contention, And a furious man is multiplying transgression.
