Proverbs 9:9 - John Wesley's Notes

Proverbs 9:9

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.

11 ^aFor by me your days will be multiplied,
And years of life will be added to you.

12 ^aIf you are wise, you are wise for yourself,
And if you scoff, you will bear it alone.”
