Proverbs 19:25

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Smite a scorner, and the simple will beware: and reprove one that hath understanding, and he will understand knowledge.

When a scoffer is punished, the simple becomes wise; when a wise man is instructed, he gains knowledge.

And all Israel shall hear and fear and never again do any such wickedness as this among you.

Then all the men of the city shall stone him to death with stones. So you shall purge the evil from your midst, and all Israel shall hear, and fear.

Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be still wiser; teach a righteous man, and he will increase in learning.

A fool despises his father's instruction, but whoever heeds reproof is prudent.

A rebuke goes deeper into a man of understanding than a hundred blows into a fool.

Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline, so be zealous and repent.

And all Israel shall hear and fear and never again do any such wickedness as this among you.
