Pro 9:6 Forsake foolishnes, and ye shall lyue: and see that ye go in the way of vnderstandyng. Pro 9:7 Whoso reproueth a scornefull person, getteth him selfe dishonour: and he that rebuketh the vngodly, stayneth hym selfe. Pro 9:8 Reproue not a scorner, lest he owe thee euyll will: but rebuke a wyse man, and he wyll loue thee. Pro 9:9 Geue a discrete man but an occasion, and he wyll be the wyser: teache a righteous man, and he wyll encrease in knowledge. Pro 9:10 The feare of the Lorde is the beginning of wisdome: and the knowledge of holy thinges, is vnderstanding. Pro 9:11 For thorowe me thy dayes shalbe prolonged, and the yeres of thy life shall be many. Pro 9:12 If thou be wise, thy wysdome shal do thy selfe good: but if thou thinkest scorne therof, it shalbe thine owne harme.
