Midrasch zu Mischlej 17:15
מַצְדִּ֣יק רָ֭שָׁע וּמַרְשִׁ֣יעַ צַדִּ֑יק תּוֹעֲבַ֥ת יְ֝הוָ֗ה גַּם־שְׁנֵיהֶֽם׃
Wer die Gottlosen rechtfertigt und die Gerechten verurteilt, der ist dem HERRN ein Greuel.

"Justifying the wicked and convicting the innocent—Both are an abomination to the Lrd" (Proverbs 17:15) Rabbi Yehoshua son of Levi said ‘it is not because Rivka loved Yaacov more than Esav that she did this thing; but she said that it will not help and confuse that elderly man - for the name of Gd is an abomination to both of them, and because he justified the wicked, his eyes were dim – "it was when Yitzchak was old that his eyes grew dim" Genesis 27:1
