Proverbs 29:4-6
International Standard Version

4 A king brings stability to a land through justice,
    but a man who takes bribes brings it to ruin.

5 A strong man who flatters his neighbor
    is setting a trap where he walks.[a]

The Wicked and Righteous Contrasted

6 An evil man is trapped by transgression,
    but the righteous person sings and rejoices.
