Proverbs 21:11-13
International Standard Version

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.

13 Whoever refuses to hear the cry of the poor
    will also cry himself, but he won’t be answered.
