Proverbs 15:5-8

⁵A fool scorns his father's instruction: but he that keeps his commandments is more prudent. In abounding righteousness is great strength: but the ungodly shall utterly perish from the earth.

⁶In the houses of the righteous is much strength: but the fruits of the ungodly shall perish.

⁷The lips of the wise are bound by discretion: but the hearts of the foolish are not safe.

⁸The sacrifices of the ungodly are an abomination to the Lord; but the prayers of them that walk honestly are acceptable with him.
