Proverbs 21:10-12

International Standard Version

¹⁰ The soul of the wicked craves evil;
    he extends no mercy to his neighbor.

¹¹ When a mocker is punished, the fool gains wisdom;
    but when the wise is instructed, he receives knowledge.
¹² The righteous God^[a] considers the house of the wicked,
    bringing the wicked to ruin.
