PROVERBS 9:9-12

⁹Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a righteous man, and he will increase in learning.

¹⁰The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.

¹¹For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased.

¹²If thou art wise, thou art wise for thyself: and if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.
