teach the righteous and they will add to their learning.

rebuke the wise and they will love you.

7 Whoever corrects a mocker invites insults;
whoever rebukes the wicked incurs abuse.

Be very careful admonishing the godless.
Their response will be far from appreciative.

4 “Let all who are simple come to my house!”
To those who have no sense she says,
5 “Come, eat my food
and drink the wine I have mixed.
6 Leave your simple ways and you will live;
walk in the way of insight.”
Proverbs Club Commentary
Wisdom introduces you
to all things good to do
and all things evil to avoid.
She securely guides you on the narrow path.

3 She has sent out her servants, and she calls
from the highest point of the city,
4 “Let all who are simple come to my house!”
Proverbs Club Commentary
It only takes an objective attitude
to learn, appreciate, and follow wisdom.
