Come and Learn

Proverbs 9:7-9

“He who corrects a scoffer gets shame for himself,
 And he who rebukes a wicked man only harms himself.
  Do not correct a scoffer, lest he hate you;
 Rebuke a wise man, and he will love you.
  Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be still wiser;
 Teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.

A Prepared Heart

Proverbs 16:1-3
The preparations of the heart belong to man,
  But the answer of the tongue is from the Lord.
  All the ways of a man are pure in his own eyes,
 But the Lord weighs the spirits.
  Commit your works to the Lord,
 And your thoughts will be established.

Proverbs 16:23
The heart of the wise teaches his mouth,
 And adds learning to his lips.

Come and Live

Proverbs 9:10-12
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,
 And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
  For by me your days will be multiplied,
 And years of life will be added to you.
  If you are wise, you are wise for yourself,
 And if you scoff, you will bear it alone.”
