He that is wise will hear, and will increase learning; and the intelligent will gain wise counsels:

If thou art wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself; and if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.

He that walketh with wise men becometh wise; but a companion of the foolish will be depraved.

When the scorner is punished, the simple becometh wise; and when the wise is instructed, he receiveth knowledge.

A fool uttereth all his mind; but a wise man keepeth it back.

Impart to a wise man, and he will become yet wiser; teach a righteous man, and he will increase learning.
