Proverbs 9:5-10

⁵Come, take of my bread, and of my wine which is mixed.

⁶Give up the simple ones and have life, and go in the way of knowledge.

⁷He who gives teaching to a man of pride gets shame for himself; he who says sharp words to a sinner gets a bad name.

⁸Do not say sharp words to a man of pride, or he will have hate for you; make them clear to a wise man, and you will be dear to him.

⁹Give teaching to a wise man, and he will become wiser; give training to an upright man, and his learning will be increased.

¹⁰The fear of the Lord is the start of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One gives a wise mind
