Give instruction[a] to a wise man, and he will be (A)still wiser;
    teach a righteous man, and he will (B)increase in learning.
10 (C)The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,
    and (D)the knowledge of the Holy One is insight.
11 For by me (E)your days will be multiplied,
    and years will be added to your life.
