Quotation_auto for Proverbs 3:34

אִם־לַלֵּצִ֥ים הֽוּא־יָלִ֑יץ ולעניים [וְ֝לַעֲנָוִ֗ים] יִתֶּן־חֵֽן׃

If it concerneth the scorners, He scorneth them, But unto the humble He giveth grace.

Yalkut Shimoni on Torah

... “YHVH Elohim” – a parable to a king . . . who poured hot and cold mixed into his [glass] cups and they withstood (didn’t break). Thus says the Holy One: If I create with the quality of judgment (Elohim), how will the world stand? With the quality of mercy (YHVH), then won’t sin spread? Rather here I will create it with the quality of judgment and the quality of mercy – may it only be that the world will stand!
