אַל־תּוֹכַח לֵץ פֶּן־יִשְׂנָאֶךָּ הוֹכַח לְחָכָם וְיֶאֱהָבֶֽךָּ
Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee; reprove a wise man, and he will love thee.
תֵּן לְחָכָם וְיֶחְכַּם־עוֹד הוֹדַע לְצַדִּיק וְיוֹסֶף לֶֽקַח
Give to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser; teach a righteous man, and he will increase in learning.
תְּחִלַּת חָכְמָה יִרְאַת יְהוָה וְדַעַת קְדֹשִׁים בִּינָֽה
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the All-holy is understanding.
כִּי־בִי יִרְבּוּ יָמֶיךָ וְיוֹסִיפוּ לְּךָ שְׁנוֹת חַיִּֽים
For by me thy days shall be multiplied, and the years of thy life shall be increased.
אִם־חָכַמְתָּ חָכַמְתָּ לָּךְ וְלַצְתָּ לְֽבַדְּךָ תִשָּֽׂא
If thou art wise, thou art wise for thyself; And if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.’
