Proverbs 23:9-11
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

9 Do not speak in the hearing of a fool,
    who will only despise the wisdom of your words.
10 Do not remove an ancient landmark
    or encroach on the fields of orphans,
11 for their redeemer is strong;
    he will plead their cause against you.
