8 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord,[a]
but he delights in the prayer of the upright.

whoever hates a rebuke will die.
Footnotes
- Proverbs 15:8 The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord: the sacrifices of the wicked are without value in God’s eyes (see Prov 21:3 and note; 21:27; Eccl 4:17; Isa 1:11-15; Jer 6:20). He delights in the prayer of the upright: see Prov 3:32.
