Proverbs 9:7-12

The Difference Between Wise and Scornful

Proverbs 9:7-12
7
He that teacheth a scorner, doth an injury to himself; and he that rebuketh a wicked man, getteth himself a blot.
8
Rebuke not a scorner, lest he hate thee. Rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.
9
Give an occasion to a wise man, and wisdom shall be added to him. Teach a just man, and he shall make haste to receive it.
10
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is prudence.
11
For by me shall thy days be multiplied, and years of life shall be added to thee.
12
If thou be wise, thou shalt be so to thyself: and if a scorner, thou alone shalt bear the evil.
