9  Give instruction¹ to a wise man, and he will be ⁿstill wiser;

teach a righteous man, and he will ^oincrease in learning.

15  ^yThe way of a fool is right in his own eyes,

but a wise man listens to advice.

10  ^fBy insolence comes nothing but strife,

but with those who take advice is wisdom.

13  Whoever ^jdespises ^kthe word¹ brings destruction on himself,

but he who reveres the commandment² will be ^lrewarded.

32  Whoever ^gignores instruction ^hdespises himself,

but he who listens to reproof ⁱgains intelligence.

10  A rebuke goes deeper into a man of understanding

than a hundred blows into a fool.
