Context of Proverbs 19:27
25Smite a scorner, and the simple will beware: and reprove one that hath understanding, and he will understand knowledge. 26He that wastethhisfather, and chaseth away his mother, is a son that causeth shame, and bringeth reproach. Cease, my son, to hear the instruction that causeth to err from the words of knowledge. 28An ungodly witness scorneth judgment: and the mouth of the wicked devoureth iniquity. 29Judgments are prepared for scorners, and stripes for the back of fools.
