Proverbs 24:23-26

New American Standard Bible

²³ These also are ^(A)sayings of the wise:
To ^[a](B)show partiality in judgment is not good.
²⁴ One ^(C)who says to the wicked, “You are righteous,”
^(D)Peoples will curse him, nations will scold him;
²⁵ But ^(E)for those who rebuke the wicked there will be delight,
And a good blessing will come upon them.
²⁶ One who gives ^[b]a right answer
Kisses the lips.
