Proverbs 5:22
The iniquities of a wicked man entrap him; the cords of his sin entangle him.
His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be holden with the cords of his sins.
Note sins: Heb. sin
The evil deeds of the wicked ensnare him. The cords of his sin hold him firmly.
His own iniquities shall take the wicked, And he shall be holden with the cords of his sin.
