Proverbs 14:9

Fools make a mock at sin: but among the righteous there is favour.

• Sin
• Foolishness
• Righteousness
• Wisdom
• Humility

This verse highlights the contrasting attitudes of fools and the righteous toward sin. Fools disregard the seriousness of sin, often mocking or trivializing it, showing a lack of wisdom and reverence for God’s standards. In contrast, the righteous understand the gravity of sin and choose to live in a way that honors God. This verse challenges believers to examine their own attitudes, encouraging a mindset that respects the destructive nature of sin. Mocking sin displays a heart insensitive to God’s holiness, while the righteous find favor by living with a deep sense of accountability. This passage encourages humility and wisdom, guiding us to align our lives with God’s truth rather than the careless attitudes that lead to ruin. Recognizing the seriousness of sin helps us to avoid its traps and live a life that reflects God’s love and righteousness. Fools may mock what they do not understand, but the righteous find favor as they walk in the light of God’s truth.
