PROVERBS 19:25-29

²⁵smite a scorner, and the simple will learn prudence: and reprove one that hath understanding, and he will understand knowledge.

²⁶He that spoileth his father, and chaseth away his mother, is a son that causeth shame and bringeth reproach.

²⁷Cease, my son, to hear instruction only to err from the words of knowledge.

²⁸A worthless witness mocketh at judgment: and the mouth of the wicked swalloweth iniquity.

²⁹Judgments are prepared for scorners, and stripes for the back of fools.
