Proverbs 9:6
World English Bible
Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
3 She has sent out her maidens. She cries from the highest places of the city:
4 "Whoever is simple, let him turn in here!" As for him who is void of understanding, she says to him,
5 "Come, eat some of my bread, Drink some of the wine which I have mixed!
6 Leave your simple ways, and live. Walk in the way of understanding."
7 He who corrects a mocker invites insult. He who reproves a wicked man invites abuse.
8 Don`t reprove a scoffer, lest he hate you. Reprove a wise man, and he will love you.
9 Instruct a wise man, and he will be still wiser. Teach a righteous man, and he will increase in learning.
