Proverbs 9:7-12

He that reproveth
<03256> (8802)

a scorner
<03887> (8801)

getteth
<03947> (8802)

to himself shame
<07036>_:

and he that rebuketh
<03198> (8688)

a wicked
<07563>

[man getteth] himself a blot
<03971>_.

Reprove
<03198> (8686)

not a scorner
<03887> (8801)_,

lest he hate
<08130> (8799)

thee: rebuke
<03198> (8685)

a wise man
<02450>_,

and he will love
<0157> (8799)

thee.

Give
<05414> (8798)

[instruction] to a wise
<02450>

[man], and he will be yet wiser
<02449> (8799)_:

teach
<03045> (8685)

a just
<06662>

[man], and he will increase
<03254> (8686)

in learning
<03948>_.

The fear
<03374>

of the LORD
<03068>

[is] the beginning
<08462>

of wisdom
<02451>_:

and the knowledge
<01847>

of the holy
<06918>

[is] understanding
<0998>_.

For by me thy days
<03117>

shall be multiplied
<07235> (8799)_,

and the years
<08141>

of thy life
<02416>

shall be increased
<03254> (8686)_.

If thou be wise
<02449> (8804)_,

thou shalt be wise
<02449> (8804)

for thyself: but [if] thou scornest
<03887> (8804)_,

thou alone shalt bear
<05375> (8799)

[it].
