7He who 1corrects a scoffer gets dishonor for himself, And he who reproves a wicked man gets 2insults for himself.8 3Do not reprove a scoffer, or he will hate you, 4Reprove a wise man and he will love you.9Give instruction to a wise man and he will be still wiser, Teach a righteous man and he will 5increase his learning.
