Proverbs 24:23-25

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²³ These also are sayings of the wise: To discriminate and show partiality, having respect of persons in judging, is not good.

²⁴ He who says to the wicked, You are righteous and innocent—peoples will curse him, nations will defy and abhor him.

²⁵ But to those [upright judges] who rebuke the wicked, it will go well with them and they will find delight, and a good blessing will be upon them.
