Proverbs 15:11-15

¹¹Before the Lord are the underworld and destruction: how much more, then, the hearts of the children of men!

¹²The hater of authority has no love for teaching: he will not go to the wise.

¹³A glad heart makes a shining face, but by the sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.

¹⁴The heart of the man of good sense goes in search of knowledge, but foolish things are the food of the unwise.

¹⁵All the days of the troubled are evil; but he whose heart is glad has an unending feast.
