⁶ Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.

¹³ Therefore the prudent shall keep silence in that time; for it is an evil time.

⁴ Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him.

⁷ He that reproveth a scorner getteth to himself shame: and he that rebuketh a wicked man getteth himself a blot.
