Proverbs 9:6-8

Revised Standard Version

⁶ Leave simpleness,^[a] and live,
    and walk in the way of insight.”

⁷ He who corrects a scoffer gets himself abuse,
    and he who reproves a wicked man incurs injury.
⁸ Do not reprove a scoffer, or he will hate you;
    reprove a wise man, and he will love you.
