Proverbs
Chapters 15:7-13
New International Version Anglicized
7The lips of the wise spread knowledge,but the hearts of fools are not upright.
8The Lord detests the sacrifice of the wicked,but the prayer of the upright pleases him.
9The Lord detests the way of the wicked,but he loves those who pursue righteousness.
10Stern discipline awaits anyone who leaves the path;the one who hates correction will die.
11Death and Destruction lie open before the Lord –how much more do human hearts!
12Mockers resent correction,so they avoid the wise.
13A happy heart makes the face cheerful,but heartache crushes the spirit.
