Proverbs 22:10
The Voice
10 Expel a mocker, and watch the wrangling go with him;
rivalry and rude remarks will also stop.
Proverbs 22:17-21
The Voice
The Words of the Wise
17 Lend an ear, listen to these words of the wise,
and align your thoughts with my instructions
18 Because true pleasure will be yours by learning them, living them,
and being ready to repeat them to others.
19 In order that you will trust only in the Eternal,
I teach them to you this day—yes, even you!
20 In fact, didn’t I already write down for you
Thirty axioms of good advice and sound knowledge
21 To reveal to you what is reliably true
so you can answer those who sent you with these truths you’ve learned?
