Proverbs 21:11-13

Lexham English Bible

¹¹ With the punishment of a scoffer, the simple will become wise,
    and with the instruction of the wise, he will obtain knowledge.
¹² The righteous observes the house of the wicked;
    he throws the wicked to ruin.
¹³ He who closes his ear from the cry of the poor,
    he also will cry out and not be heard.
