Proverbs 12:1-3

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

12 Whoever loves instruction and correction loves knowledge, but he who hates reproof is like a brute beast, stupid and indiscriminating.

² A good man obtains favor from the Lord, but a man of wicked devices He condemns.

³ A man shall not be established by wickedness, but the root of the [uncompromisingly] righteous shall never be moved.
