7 Bible Verses about Hating The Righteous

They hate him who reproves in the gate,
And they abhor him who speaks with integrity.

Do not reprove a scoffer, or he will hate you,
Reprove a wise man and he will love you.

Men of bloodshed hate the blameless,
But the upright are concerned for his life.

An unjust man is abominable to the righteous,
And he who is upright in the way is abominable to the wicked.

Evil shall slay the wicked,
And those who hate the righteous will be condemned.

Ephraim was a watchman with my God, a prophet;
Yet the snare of a bird catcher is in all his ways,
And there is only hostility in the house of his God.

The days of punishment have come,
The days of retribution have come;
Let Israel know this!
The prophet is a fool,
The inspired man is demented,
Because of the grossness of your iniquity,
And because your hostility is so great.
