Proverbs 9:8-10
English Standard Version

8 (A)Do not reprove a scoffer, or he will hate you;
    (B)reprove a wise man, and he will love you.
9 Give instruction[a] to a wise man, and he will be (C)still wiser;
    teach a righteous man, and he will (D)increase in learning.
10 (E)The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,
    and (F)the knowledge of the Holy One is insight.
