Proverbs 15:5-12

Young's Literal Translation

⁵ A fool despiseth the instruction of his father, And whoso is regarding reproof is prudent.

⁶ [In] the house of the righteous [is] abundant strength, And in the increase of the wicked -- trouble.

⁷ The lips of the wise scatter knowledge, And the heart of fools [is] not right.

⁸ The sacrifice of the wicked [is] an abomination to Jehovah, And the prayer of the upright [is] His delight.

⁹ An abomination to Jehovah [is] the way of the wicked, And whoso is pursuing righteousness He loveth.

¹⁰ Chastisement [is] grievous to him who is forsaking the path, Whoso is hating reproof dieth.

¹¹ Sheol and destruction [are] before Jehovah, Surely also the hearts of the sons of men.

¹² A scorner loveth not his reprover, Unto the wise he goeth not.
