Proverbs 9:9-12

Proverbs 8 Proverbs 10

Proverbs 9:9-12English Standard Version (ESV)

⁹Give instruction^[a] to a wise man, and he will be still wiser;
    teach a righteous man, and he will increase in learning.
¹⁰The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,
    and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight.
¹¹For by me your days will be multiplied,
    and years will be added to your life.
¹²If you are wise, you are wise for yourself;
    if you scoff, you alone will bear it.
