Proverbs 23:9-13 English Revised Version (ERV)

9. Speak not in the hearing of a fool; for he will despise the wisdom of thy words.

10. Remove not the ancient landmark; and enter not into the fields of the fatherless:

11. For their redeemer is strong; he shall plead their cause against thee.

12. Apply thine heart unto instruction, and thine ears to the words of knowledge.

13. Withhold not correction from the child: for if thou beat him with the rod, he shall not die.
