Proverbs 29:6-8

American Standard Version

⁶ In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare;
But the righteous doth sing and rejoice.
⁷ The righteous taketh knowledge of the cause of the poor;
The wicked ^[a]hath not understanding to know it.
⁸ Scoffers set a city in a flame;
But wise men turn away wrath.
