10 Discipline is harsh for the one who leaves the path;the one who hates correction will die.
11 Sheol and Abaddon lie open before the Lord —how much more, human hearts.
12 A mocker doesn’t love one who corrects him; he will not consult the wise.
13 A joyful heart makes a face cheerful,but a sad heart produces a broken spirit.
14 A discerning mind seeks knowledge, but the mouth of fools feeds on foolishness.
15 All the days of the oppressed are miserable,but a cheerful heart has a continual feast.
16 Better a little with the fear of the Lordthan great treasure with turmoil.
