Proverbs 9:9-11

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁹ Give instruction to a wise man and he will be still wiser,
Teach a righteous man and he will ^(A)increase his learning.
¹⁰ The ^(B)fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,
And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
¹¹ For ^(C)by me your days will be multiplied,
And years of life will be added to you.
