Proverbs 9:5-10

⁵“Come, eat of my bread, and drink of the wine which I have mingled.

⁶Forsake simplicity, and live; and go onward on the way of understanding.

⁷He that correcteth a scorner acquireth for himself abuse; and he that reproveth the wicked getteth himself a blemish.

⁸Do not correct a scorner, lest he hate thee: reprove a wise man, and he will love thee.

⁹Give to the wise instruction, and he will become yet wiser: impart knowledge to the righteous, and he will increase his information.

¹⁰The commencement of wisdom is the fear of the Lord; and the knowledge of the Most Holy One is understanding.
