Proverbs 15:8-10

Holman Christian Standard Bible

⁸ The sacrifice of the wicked is detestable to the Lord,^(A)
but the prayer of the upright is His delight.^(B)

⁹ The Lord detests the way of the wicked,
but He loves the one who pursues righteousness.^(C)

¹⁰ Discipline is harsh for the one who leaves the path;
the one who hates correction will die.
