Augustine of Hippo, on Prov 5:22
Augustine of Hippo · A.D. 354–430
Prov 5:22 · Douay-Rheims
“His own iniquities catch the wicked, and he is fast bound with the ropes of his own sins.”
On this verse:
“Let those who are bound fear, those who are loosed fear. Let those who are loosed be afraid of being bound; those who are bound pray to be loosed. "Each one is tied up in the threads of his own sins." And apart from the church, nothing is loosed.”
