Context of Proverbs 15:10
8The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to Jehovah; but the prayer of the upright is his delight. 9The way of a wicked [man] is an abomination to Jehovah; but him that pursueth righteousness he loveth. Grievous correction is for him that forsaketh the path; he that hateth reproof shall die. 11Sheol and destruction are before Jehovah; how much more then the hearts of the children of men! 12A scorner loveth not one that reproveth him; he will not go unto the wise.
