Proverbs 15:6-8

International Children’s Bible

⁶ There is much wealth in the houses of good people.
    But evil people are paid only with trouble.

⁷ With their words wise people spread knowledge.
    But there is no knowledge in the thoughts of the foolish.

⁸ The Lord hates the sacrifice that the wicked person offers.
    But he is pleased with an honest person’s prayer.
