Proverbs 15:10

"The way of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD, but he loves him who follows after righteousness."

Key Reflection

The way of the wicked is detested by the Lord due to its inherent evil, whereas those who pursue righteousness find favor in his sight, as they align themselves with divine standards of justice and integrity. This verse underscores the stark contrast between God's preference for moral uprightness and his aversion to wrongdoing.

From the Scholars: Barnes' Notes

Better, There is a grievous correction, i. e., nothing less than death, to him that forsaketh the way.
