9The way of the wicked is an abomination to Jehovah; But he loveth him that followeth after righteousness.

10There is grievous correction for him that forsaketh the way; [And] he that hateth reproof shall die.

11Sheol and Abaddon are before Jehovah: How much more then the hearts of the children of men!

12A scoffer loveth not to be reproved; He will not go unto the wise.

13A glad heart maketh a cheerful countenance; But by sorrow of heart the spirit is broken.

14The heart of him that hath understanding seeketh knowledge; But the mouth of fools feedeth on folly.

15All the days of the afflicted are evil; But he that is of a cheerful heart [hath] a continual feast.
