Proverbs 21:11-13

EasyEnglish Bible

¹¹ When a proud person receives punishment,
    silly people become wise.
When you teach a wise person,
    he learns more knowledge.
¹² The Righteous One knows what happens in the homes of wicked people.^[a]
    He punishes them as they deserve.
¹³ If you refuse to listen when poor people ask for help,
    you too will receive no help when you need it.
