Proverbs 9:5-10

⁵Come ye, eat ye my bread; and drink ye the wine, which I have meddled or mingled to you.

⁶Forsake ye young childhood, and live ye; and go ye by the way of prudence.

⁷He that teacheth a scorner, doeth wrong to himself; and he that reproveth a wicked man, engendereth a wem to himself.

⁸Do not thou reprove a scorner; lest he hate thee. Reprove thou a wise man; and he shall love thee.

⁹Give thou occasion to a wise man; and wisdom shall be increased to him. Teach thou a just or rightwise man; and he shall hasten to take it.

¹⁰The beginning of wisdom is the dread of the Lord; and prudence is the knowing of saints.
