Proverbs 9:12
Wisdom is its own reward, and if you scorn her, you hurt only yourself. [Living Bible]
Live wisely and wisdom will permeate your life; mock life and life will mock you. [The Message]
My son, if you are wise, you are wise for yourself and for your friends; but if you are evil-minded, you alone shall bear your evils; [Lamsa Bible]
Son, if thou be wise for thyself, thou shalt also be wise for thy neighbours; and if thou shouldest prove wicked, thou alone wilt bear the evil. [Brenton Septuagint Translation]
