Thematic Bible
Reproof » The reward for reproving a wise man
If you scourge a scoffer, the simple person may learn to be discreet; rebuke a discerning man and he will gain understanding.
Don't rebuke a mocker or he will hate you. Rebuke a wise person, and he will love you. Counsel a wise man, and he will be wiser still; teach a righteous man, and he will add to his learning.
