Proverbs 9:7-9
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
General Maxims
7 Whoever corrects a scoffer wins abuse;
whoever rebukes the wicked gets hurt.
8 A scoffer who is rebuked will only hate you;
the wise, when rebuked, will love you.
9 Give instruction[a] to the wise, and they will become wiser still;
teach the righteous and they will gain in learning.
