Proverbs 15:29-31

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²⁹ The Lord is far from the wicked, but He hears the prayer of the [consistently] righteous (the upright, in right standing with Him).

³⁰ The light in the eyes [of him whose heart is joyful] rejoices the hearts of others, and good news nourishes the bones.

³¹ The ear that listens to the reproof [that leads to or gives] life will remain among the wise.
