Proverbs 19:25-29

²⁵Strike a mocker, and the naive person will become prudent; discipline one who is discerning, and he will gain knowledge.

²⁶The one who robs his father and chases his mother away is a son who brings shame and reproach.

²⁷If you cease to hear instruction, my son, you will stray from the words of knowledge.

²⁸A corrupt witness mocks justice and the mouth of the wicked swallows iniquity.

²⁹Condemnation is ready for mockers and flogging for the backs of fools.
