He that reproveth a scorner getteth to himself shame: and he that rebuketh a wicked man getteth himself a blot.
Although the peoples roar like the roar of surging waters, when he rebukes them they flee far away, driven before the wind like chaff on the hills, like tumbleweed before a gale.Book of Isaiah 17:13 NIV
Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.Proverbs 9:8 KJV
Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.Proverbs 9:6 KJV
