SEV Biblia, Chapter 22:5
¶ Espinas y lazos hay en el camino del perverso; el que guarda su alma se alejará de ellos.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Proverbs 22:5
Verse 5. Thorns and snares ] Various difficulties, trials, and sufferings.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 5. Thorns [and] snares [are] in the way of the froward , etc.] Who walks contrary to the will and law of God; such a man meets with troubles, which are as thorns, grieving and distressing to him; and is taken in snares, and brought into difficulties, out of which he is not easily extricated; the thorns of affliction, and the snares of Satan: by the one his way is hedged up, and in the other his feet are taken; he that doth keep his soul shall be far from them ; he that is concerned for the good of his soul, is careful for the welfare of that, and takes heed to his ways where and how he walks, will be far both from the way of the froward, and from the thorns and snares which are in his way.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 5 - The way of sin is vexatious and dangerous. But the way of duty is saf and easy.
