7 One who (A)corrects a scoffer gets dishonor for himself,And one who rebukes a wicked person gets [a]insults for himself.
8 (A)Do not rebuke a scoffer, or he will hate you;(B)Rebuke a wise person and he will love you.
4 (A)Do not answer a fool [a]according to his foolishness,Or you will also be like him.
