Proverbs 15:12
“A scorner loveth not one that reproveth him: neither will he go unto the wise.”
Correction is grievous unto him that forsaketh the way: and he that hateth reproof shall die.
Hell and destruction are before the Lord: how much more then the hearts of the children of men?
A scorner loveth not one that reproveth him: neither will he go unto the wise.
A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.
The heart of him that hath understanding seeketh knowledge: but the mouth of fools feedeth on foolishness.
