| 8 | So don’t bother correcting mockers; they will only hate you. But correct the wise, and they will love you. | Do not reprove a scoffer, or he will hate you; reprove a wise man, and he will love you. | Do not rebuke mockers or they will hate you; rebuke the wise and they will love you. | |
| 9 | Instruct the wise, and they will be even wiser. Teach the righteous, and they will learn even more. | Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be still wiser; teach a righteous man, and he will increase in learning. | Instruct the wise and they will be wiser still; teach the righteous and they will add to their learning. | |
