John Trapp on Proverbs 29:24

Verſ. 24. Whoſo is partner with a thief, hateth his own ſoul] Sith to hold the bag is as bad as to fill it; to conſent to ſin, or to conceal it, as bad as [illegible: 1 letter]o commit it. By the one as well as by the other, a man may eaſily become, as Coraeh did, a ſinner againſt his own ſoul, and cruelly cut the throat of it. Let our publike theevs look to this. See Iſa. 1.23.

He heareth curſing and bewrayeth it not] See Levit. 5.1. with the Note. To conceal treaſon is treaſon, ſo here. Have no fellowſhip therefore with the unfruitful works of darkneſs, but rather reprove them. Let me be counted proud or pragmatical, ſaith Luther, rather than found guilty of ſinful ſilence,Luth. Epiſt. ad Staupi[illegible: 1 letter]. whiles my Lord ſuffereth.
