Proverbs 14:11

Justice

9 Fools mock the making of amends, but goodwill is found among the upright.

10 The heart knows its own bitterness, and no stranger shares in its joy.

The house of the wicked will be destroyed, but the tent of the upright will flourish.

12 There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death.

13 Even in laughter the heart may ache, and joy may end in sorrow.
