Proverbs 9:10 in context

8Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.

9Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.

10The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.

12If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.
