Flattery is nothing less
    than setting a trap.
Your sins will catch you,
but everyone who lives right
    will sing and celebrate.
The wicked don't care
about the rights of the poor,
    but good people do.
Sneering at others is a spark
    that sets a city on fire;
using good sense can put out
    the flames of anger.
