Things that Ensnare Man

Sin:

Psalm 69:22

22 May the table set before them become a snare; may it become retribution and[a] a trap.

A fool’s lips:

Proverbs 18:7

7 The mouths of fools are their undoing, and their lips are a snare to their very lives.

Anger:

Proverbs 22:25

25 or you may learn their ways and get yourself ensnared.

Evil acts:

Proverbs 29:4-8

4 By justice a king gives a country stability, but those who are greedy for[a] bribes tear it down.

5 Those who flatter their neighbors are spreading nets for their feet.

6 Evildoers are snared by their own sin,  but the righteous shout for joy and are glad.

7 The righteous care about justice for the poor, but the wicked have no such concern.

8 Mockers stir up a city, but the wise turn away anger.

Fear of man:

Proverbs 29:25

25 Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is kept safe.

Rejection of Christ:

Isaiah 8:14-16

14 He will be a holy place; for both Israel and Judah he will be a stone that causes people to stumble and a rock that makes them fall. And for the people of Jerusalem he will be a trap and a snare.

15 Many of them will stumble; they will fall and be broken, they will be snared and captured.”

16 Bind up this testimony of warning and seal up God’s instruction among my disciples.
