Proverbs 9:10

⁸Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.Don’t reprove a scoffer, lest he hate you. Reprove a wise person, and he will love you.

⁹Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.Instruct a wise person, and he will be still wiser. Teach a righteous person, and he will increase in learning.

¹⁰The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.The fear of Yahweh is the beginning of wisdom. The knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.

¹¹For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased.For by me your days will be multiplied. The years of your life will be increased.

¹²If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.If you are wise, you are wise for yourself. If you mock, you alone will bear it.
