(A)The lips of the wise spread knowledge;
    (B)not so the hearts of fools.[a]
(C)The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord,
    but (D)the prayer of the upright is acceptable to him.
The way of the wicked is an abomination to the Lord,
    but he loves him (E)who pursues righteousness.
