Proverbs 21:12

Proverbs Of Solomon

¹¹ When a mocker is punished,
the inexperienced become wiser;
when one teaches a wise man,
he acquires knowledge. ¹² The Righteous One considers the house of the wicked;
He brings the wicked to ruin. ¹³ The one who shuts his ears to the cry of the poor
will himself also call out and not be answered.
