'Scoffer' in the Bible

Don't reprove a scoffer, lest he hate you. Reprove a wise man, and he will love you.

A wise son listens to his father's instruction, but a scoffer doesn't listen to rebuke.

A scoffer seeks wisdom, and doesn't find it, but knowledge comes easily to a discerning person.

A scoffer doesn't love to be reproved; he will not go to the wise.

Flog a scoffer, and the simple will learn prudence; rebuke one who has understanding, and he will gain knowledge.

The proud and haughty man, "scoffer" is his name; he works in the arrogance of pride.
