Proverbs 9:7-13

⁷He that reproueth a scorner, purchaseth to himselfe shame: and he that rebuketh the wicked, getteth himselfe a blot.

⁸Rebuke not a scorner, least he hate thee: but rebuke a wise man, and he will loue thee.

⁹Giue admonition to the wise, and he will be the wiser: teache a righteous man, and he will increase in learning.

¹⁰The beginning of wisedome is the feare of the Lord, and the knowledge of holy things, is vnderstanding.

¹¹For thy dayes shalbe multiplied by me, and the yeeres of thy life shalbe augmented.

¹²If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thy selfe, and if thou be a scorner, thou alone shalt suffer.

¹³A foolish woman is troublesome: she is ignorant, and knoweth nothing.
