Proverbs 9
6 Ref Give up the simple ones and have life, and go in the way of knowledge.
7 Ref He who gives teaching to a man of pride gets shame for himself; he who says sharp words to a sinner gets a bad name.
8 Ref Do not say sharp words to a man of pride, or he will have hate for you; make them clear to a wise man, and you will be dear to him.
