11When the scorner is punished, the simple is made wise: and when the wise is taught intelligence, he receiveth knowledge.
12The righteous regardeth attentively the house of the wicked; but God overturneth the wicked into unhappiness.
13Whoso stoppeth his ears against the cry of the poor, he also will cry himself, but shall not be answered.
