Proverbs 21:10-16

¹⁰The soul of the wicked hath desired evil, Not gracious in his eyes is his neighbour.

¹¹When the scorner is punished, the simple becometh wise, And in giving understanding to the wise He receiveth knowledge.

¹²The Righteous One is acting wisely Towards the house of the wicked, He is overthrowing the wicked for wickedness.

¹³Whoso is shutting his ear from the cry of the poor, He also doth cry, and is not answered.

¹⁴A gift in secret pacifieth anger, And a bribe in the bosom strong fury.

¹⁵To do justice is joy to the righteous, But ruin to workers of iniquity.

¹⁶A man who is wandering from the way of understanding, In an assembly of Rephaim resteth.
