Proverbs 15:7-14

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.

⁹The ways of an ungodly man are an abomination to the Lord; But he loves those that follow after righteousness.

¹⁰The instruction of the simple is known by them that pass by; But they that hate reproofs die disgracefully.

¹¹Hell and destruction are manifest to the Lord; How shall not also be the hearts of men?

¹²An uninstructed person will not love those that reprove him; Neither will he associate with the wise.

¹³When the heart rejoices the countenance is cheerful; But when it is in sorrow, the countenance is sad.

¹⁴An upright heart seeks discretion; But the mouth of the uninstructed will experience evils.
