NASB
""Forsake your folly and live, And proceed in the way of understanding.""
— Proverbs 9:6, NASB
“Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.”
She has sent out her maidens, she calls From the tops of the heights of the city:
"Whoever is naive, let him turn in here!" To him who lacks understanding she says,
"Come, eat of my food And drink of the wine I have mixed.
"Forsake your folly and live, And proceed in the way of understanding."
He who corrects a scoffer gets dishonor for himself, And he who reproves a wicked man gets insults for himself.
Do not reprove a scoffer, or he will hate you, Reprove a wise man and he will love you.
Give instruction to a wise man and he will be still wiser, Teach a righteous man and he will increase his learning.
