  1. 4“Whoever is simple, let him turn in here!”
    As for him who is void of understanding, she says to him,
  2. 5“Come, eat some of my bread,
    Drink some of the wine which I have mixed!
  3. 6Leave your simple ways, and live.
    Walk in the way of understanding.”
  4. 7One who corrects a mocker invites insult.
    One who reproves a wicked man invites abuse.

    Reprove a wise person, and he will love you.
