Proverbs 23:9-13

Do not speak to be heard by a fool, For he will despise the wisdom of your words.

Do not move the ancient boundary Or go into the fields of the fatherless,

For their Redeemer is strong; He will plead their case against you.

Apply your heart to discipline, And your ears to words of knowledge.

Do not withhold discipline from a child; Though you strike him with the rod, he will not die.
