Proverbs 9:8
Don’t warn those who make fun of others, or they will hate you. Warn those who are wise, and they will love you. [New International Reader's Version]
Any bragger you correct will only hate you. But if you correct someone who has common sense, you will be loved. [Contemporary English Version]
If you reprove an insolent man, he will hate you; if you reprove a wise man, he will love you. [New Catholic Bible]
Do not correct a scoffer [who foolishly ridicules and takes no responsibility for his error] or he will hate you; Correct a wise man [who learns from his error], and he will love you. [Amplified Bible]
