Proverbs 21:12

Proverbs Of Solomon

¹¹ When the scoffer is punished, the naive becomes wise;
But when the wise is instructed, he receives knowledge.
¹² The righteous one considers the house of the wicked,
Turning the wicked to ruin.
¹³ He who shuts his ear to the cry of the poor
Will also cry himself and not be answered.
