If the scorners He doth scorn, Yet to the humble He doth give grace.

If you are wise, you are wise for yourself [for your own benefit];
If you scoff [thoughtlessly ridicule and disdain], you alone will pay the penalty.

He that thinketh scorn to be reformed, cometh to poverty and shame; but whoso receiveth correction, shall come to honour.

Whoso laugheth the poor to scorn, blasphemeth his maker; and he that is glad of another man's hurt, shall not be unpunished.

When a wicked man comes, contempt also comes,
And with dishonor comes scorn.

A false witness laugheth judgement to scorn; and the mouth of the ungodly eateth up wickedness.

Whoso laugheth his father to scorn, and setteth his mother's commandment at naught; the ravens pick out his eyes in the valley, and devoured be he of the young Eagles.
