Proverbs 19:25-27
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
25 Strike a scoffer, and the simple will learn prudence;
reprove the intelligent, and they will gain knowledge.(A)
26 Those who do violence to their father and chase away their mother
are children who cause shame and bring reproach.
27 My child, stop ignoring instruction,
straying[a] from words of knowledge.
