5 A fool doesn’t like a father’s instruction,but those who heed correction are mature.
6 Great treasure is in the house of the righteous,but the gain of the wicked brings trouble.
7 The lips of the wise spread knowledge,but the hearts of fools have none.
8 The Lord detests the sacrifices of the wicked,but favors the prayers of those who do right.
9 The Lord detests the path of the wicked,but loves those who pursue righteousness.
10 Discipline is severe for those who abandon the way;those who hate correction will die.
11 The grave and the underworld lie open before the Lord;how much more the hearts of human beings!
