Proverbs 9 Quotes

“he that reproves a scorner gets to himself shame; and he that rebukes a wicked man gets himself a blot. Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate you; rebuke a wise man, and he will love you. give instruction to a wise man and he will be yet wiser; teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.

the fear of the lord is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.
For by me your days shall increase and the years of your life shall be multiplied. If you be wise, you shall be wise for yourself, but if you scorn, you shall bear it alone.

A clamorous woman is foolish, she is simple, and knows nothing. For she sits at the door of her house on a seat in high places of the city. to call passengers who go right on their ways:
whosoever is simple, let him turn hither, and as for him that wants understanding, she says to him:
stolen waters are sweet, and bread eaten in secret is pleasant,
but he knows not that the dead are there, and that her guests are in the depths of hell.”
― Solomon
