Midrasz do Przysłów 5:22
עַֽווֹנוֹתָ֗יו יִלְכְּדֻנ֥וֹ אֶת־הָרָשָׁ֑ע וּבְחַבְלֵ֥י חַ֝טָּאת֗וֹ יִתָּמֵֽךְ׃
Winy jego własne oplątują niegodziwca, a więzami występków swoich uwikłanym zostaje.

Variantly: "He made him ride on the high places of the earth": Torah, viz. (Proverbs 5:22) "The L-rd acquired me (Torah) the beginning of His way." "and he ate the shoots of the field": Scripture. "and He gave him to seek honey from the rock": Mishnah. "and oil from the flint of the rock": Talmud. "cream from the herd and milk from the flock with fat of rams and rams of the breed of Bashan and he-goats": a fortiori arguments, gezeiroth shavoth (identities), intercalations, and gematrioth (numerical equivalents). "with wheat (as fat as) the wheat of kidneys": halachoth, the essence of Torah. "and blood of the grape did you drink (as choice) wine": aggadoth, which "pull" a man's heart, like wine.
