Proverbs 9:8-10

Darby Translation

⁸ Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee; reprove a wise [man], and he will love thee.

⁹ Impart to a wise [man], and he will become yet wiser; teach a righteous [man], and he will increase learning.

¹⁰ The fear of Jehovah is the beginning of wisdom; and the knowledge of the Holy is intelligence.
