7 The lips of the wise disperse knowledge: but the heart of the foolish does not so.
8 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright is his delight.
9 The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the LORD: but he loves him that follows after righteousness.
10 Correction is grievous unto him that forsakes the way: and he that hates reproof shall die.
11 Sheol and destruction are before the LORD: how much more then the hearts of the children of men?
12 A scoffer loves not one that reproves him: neither will he go unto the wise.
13 A merry heart makes a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.
