The evil deeds of the wicked ensnare them; the cords of their sins hold them fast.

An evil man is held captive by his own sins; they are ropes that catch and hold him.

A wicked man’s iniquities will trap him; he will become tangled in the ropes of his own sin.

His own wrongdoings will trap the wicked, And he will be held by the ropes of his sin.

Whoever digs a hole and shovels it out falls into the pit they have made.The trouble they cause comes back on them. The terrible things they do will happen to them.

The nations have fallen into the pit they have dug. Their feet are caught in the net they have hidden.

I wrote a letter to you to tell you to stay away from people who commit sexual sins.I didn’t mean the people of this world who sin in this way. I didn’t mean those who always want more and more. I didn’t mean those who cheat or who worship statues of gods. In that case you would have to leave this world!

“ But what if you fail to do your duty? Then you will be sinning against the Lord. And you may be sure that your sin will be discovered. It will be brought out into the open.

Those who do what is right are guided by their honest lives. But those who aren’t faithful are destroyed by their lies.

All of you should honor marriage. You should keep the marriage bed pure. God will judge the person who commits adultery. He will judge everyone who commits sexual sins.

A woman who hunts a man down is more painful than death. Her heart is like a trap. Her hands are like chains. A man who pleases God will try to get away from her. But she will trap a sinner.

The result of sin’s control in our lives is clear. It includes sexual sins, impure acts and wild living.It includes worshiping statues of gods and worshiping evil powers. It also includes hatred and fighting, jealousy and fits of anger. Sinful desire is interested only in getting ahead. It stirs up trouble. It separates people into their own little groups.It wants what others have. It gets drunk and takes part in wild parties. It does many things of that kind. I warn you now as I did before. People who live like this will not receive God’s kingdom.

with prostitutes. They drink old wine and fresh wine. Their drinking has destroyed their ability to understand.My people ask a wooden statue of a god for advice. They get answers from a stick of wood. They are as unfaithful as prostitutes. They are not faithful to their God.They offer sacrifices on the mountaintops. They burn offerings on the hills. They worship under oak, poplar and terebinth trees. The trees provide plenty of shade. So your daughters become prostitutes. And your daughters- in- law commit adultery.“ I will not punish your daughters when they become prostitutes. I will not judge your daughters- in- law when they commit adultery. After all, the men themselves have sex with sinful women. They offer sacrifices where temple prostitutes earn their living. People who can’t understand will be destroyed!

Here is what you can be sure of. Those who give themselves over to sexual sins are lost. So are people whose lives are impure. The same is true of those who always want more and more. People who do these things might as well worship statues of gods. No one who does them will receive a share in the kingdom of Christ and of God.Don’t let anyone fool you with worthless words. People who say things like that aren’t obeying God. He is angry with them.

Don’t be fooled. You can’t outsmart God. A man gathers a crop from what he plants.Some people plant to please their desires controlled by sin. From these desires they will harvest death. Others plant to please the Holy Spirit. From the Spirit they will harvest eternal life.

Those who hide and wait will spill their own blood. They will be caught in their own trap.

So you will eat the fruit of the way you have lived. You will choke on the fruit of what you have planned.“ The wrong path that childish people take will kill them. Foolish people will be destroyed by being satisfied with the way they live.

The ways of honest people are made straight because they do what is right. But those who do what is wrong are brought down by their own sins.

You will be punished because you have sinned. You will be corrected for turning away from me. I am the Lord your God. If you desert me, bad things will happen to you. If you do not respect me, you will suffer bitterly. I want you to understand that,” announces the Lord who rules over all.
