Ordspråkene 3,34

32 For den vrange er en vederstyggelighet for Herren, men han har samfunn med de oppriktige.

33 Herrens forbannelse er over den ugudeliges hus, men han velsigner de rettferdiges bolig.

Han spotter spotterne, men gir nåde til de ydmyke.

35 De vise skal arve ære, men dårer skal bare få skam.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
