Proverbs 15:9-11

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁹ The way of the wicked is an abomination, extremely disgusting and shamefully vile to the Lord, but He loves him who pursues righteousness (moral and spiritual rectitude in every area and relation).

¹⁰ There is severe discipline for him who forsakes God’s way; and he who hates reproof will die [physically, morally, and spiritually].

¹¹ Sheol (the place of the dead) and Abaddon (the abyss, the final place of the accuser Satan) are both before the Lord—how much more, then, the hearts of the children of men?^(A)
