8. Don’t correct the impudent, or they will hate you;correct the wise, and they will love you.
9. Teach the wise, and they will become wiser;inform the righteous, and their learning will increase.
10. The beginning of wisdom is the fear of the Lord;the knowledge of the holy one is understanding.
11. Through me your days will be many;years will be added to your life.
12. If you are wise, it is to your benefit;if you are cynical, you will bear it all alone.
