8 The Lord detests the sacrifice of the wicked, but he delights in the prayers of the upright.
9 The Lord detests the way of the wicked, but he loves those who pursue godliness.
(Read Proverbs 15:8-9)
The wicked put other things in the stead of Christ's atonement, or in the place of holy obedience. Praying graces are his gift, and the work of his Spirit, with which he is well pleased.
