TSK · Proverbs 19:29

"How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity? How long will mockers delight themselves in mockery, and fools hate knowledge?

Surely he mocks the mockers, but he gives grace to the humble.

If you are wise, you are wise for yourself. If you mock, you alone will bear it.

A rebuke enters deeper into one who has understanding than a hundred lashes into a fool.

A whip is for the horse, a bridle for the donkey, and a rod for the back of fools!

For the ruthless is brought to nothing, and the scoffer ceases, and all those who are alert to do evil are cut off--

For whom the Lord loves, he chastens, and scourges every son whom he receives."
