Proverbs 9:7 - Forerunner Commentary

Proverbs 9:7

5 “Come,^a eat of my bread
And drink of the wine I have mixed.

6 Forsake foolishness and live,
And go in the way of understanding.

7 “He who corrects a scoffer gets shame for himself,
And he who rebukes a wicked man only harms himself.

8 ^aDo not correct a scoffer, lest he hate you;
^bRebuke a wise man, and he will love you.

9 Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be still wiser;
Teach a just man, ^aand he will increase in learning.

10 “The^a fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,
And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
