Proverbs 15:26

26 God can't stand evil scheming, but he puts words of grace and beauty on display.

Proverbs 15:26 In-Context

24 Life ascends to the heights for the thoughtful - it's a clean about-face from descent into hell.
25 God smashes the pretensions of the arrogant; he stands with those who have no standing.
26 God can't stand evil scheming, but he puts words of grace and beauty on display.
27 A greedy and grasping person destroys community; those who refuse to exploit live and let live.
28 Prayerful answers come from God-loyal people; the wicked are sewers of abuse.
