Verse 19
"He loveth transgression that loveth strife: He that raiseth high his gate seeketh destruction."
"One who is fond of crime must be fond of trouble, and to make one's doorway inaccessible is to invite destruction."[30] Another rendition of the last clause is: "He who builds a lofty entrance invites thieves."[31] The idea behind this is that the thief believes the builder is protecting valuables by such an entrance.
