2 Kings 18:36

But the people were silent and answered him not a word, for the king's command was, "Do not answer him."

But I am like a deaf man; I do not hear, like a mute man who does not open his mouth.

I said, "I will guard my ways, that I may not sin with my tongue; I will guard my mouth with a muzzle, so long as the wicked are in my presence."

Whoever corrects a scoffer gets himself abuse, and he who reproves a wicked man incurs injury.

Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest you be like him yourself.

Therefore he who is prudent will keep silent in such a time, for it is an evil time.

"Do not give dogs what is holy, and do not throw your pearls before pigs, lest they trample them underfoot and turn to attack you.
