The concept you're talking about is called as "Virodha-Bhakti" or "Nindā-Stuti" - both of which in terms of the figure of Speech in a Language, falls under the cateogry of "Vyājastuti".

These two shlokas seem to match the description asked in the question:

1. From the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (Bhāgavata Purāṇa):

ŚB 10.29.15

कामं क्रोधं भयं स्‍नेहमैक्यं सौहृदमेव च ।
नित्यं हरौ विदधतो यान्ति तन्मयतां हि ते ॥ १५ ॥

kāmaṃ krodhaṃ bhayaṃ s‍nehamaikyaṃ sauhṛdameva ca ।
nityaṃ harau vidadhato yānti tanmayatāṃ hi te ॥ 15 ॥

Persons who constantly direct their lust, anger, fear, protective affection, feeling of impersonal oneness or friendship toward Lord Hari are sure to become absorbed in thought of Him.


2. From the Śhiva Gītā found in the Padma Purāṇa:

Śhiva Gītā 1.22

नियामद्यस्तु कुर्वीत भक्तिं वा द्रोहमेव वा ।
तस्यापि चेत्प्रसन्नोऽसौ फलं यच्छति वाञ्चितम् ।। २२ ।।

niyāmadyastu kurvīta bhaktiṃ vā drohameva vā ।
tasyāpi cetprasanno'sau phalaṃ yacchati vāñcitam ।। 22 ।।

Even if one is steadfast either in devotion or (even) in hatred (towards Lord Śhiva), Śhiva (being himself bhagwān Āśhutoṣha) is still pleased (not only with the 'loving devotee' but, even towards the hateful person), and grants all the desired wishes.

Another Śhloka (which is being ascribed to the Śhiva Gītā by several "online-sources", conveys the same meaning as the above Śhloka, however, I'm unable to find its exact source.)

अनादरेण शाठ्येन परिहासेन मायया ।
शिवभक्तिरतश्चेत्स्यादन्त्यजोऽपि विमुच्यते ।।

anādareṇa śāṭhyena parihāsena māyayā ।
śivabhaktirataścetsyādantyajo'pi vimucyate ।।

Anyone while doing criticism, or while disrespecting, or due to jealousy, if gets devoted or gains devotion for Shiva, he would get cleansed of all the Sins immediately.

  • Also mentioned in the Padma-Purāṇa Verse 6.245.166-68:- क्रोधेनैव यथा दैत्याः समेत्य मधुसूदनम् । निधनं प्राप्य संग्रामे हता मुक्तिमवाप्नुयुः ॥ १६६ ॥कामक्रोधौ नृणां लोके निरयस्यैव कारणम् । हरिं समेत्य भावेन मुक्ता गोप्यः सुरद्विषः ॥ १६७ ॥कामाद्भयाद्वा द्वेषाद्वा ये भजंति जनार्दनम् । ते प्राप्नुवंति वैकुंठं किं पुनर्भक्तियोगतः ॥ १६८ ॥..... – Vivikta Apr 22 '22 at 09:15
  • i.e.,Since the demons angrily came to Kṛṣṇa, and met with death in the battle, they after being killed, obtained liberation. In the world lust and anger of people are the cause of (their falling into) hell. The cowherdesses, haters of gods (in their former existence), having devoutly approached him, were liberated.. Those who betake themselves to Viṣṇu (even) through lust, fear or hatred reach Vaikuṇṭha. Then what to say of those who do so through devotion! – Vivikta Apr 22 '22 at 09:15
