Guide a horse with a whip, a donkey with a bridle, and a fool with a rod to his back!

Wise words come from the lips of people with understanding, but those lacking sense will be beaten with a rod.

If you become wise, you will be the one to benefit. If you scorn wisdom, you will be the one to suffer.

Be careful! Don’t let the prophets’ words apply to you. For they said,‘ Look, you mockers, be amazed and die! For I am doing something in your own day, something you wouldn’t believe even if someone told you about it.’”

For the Lord disciplines those he loves, and he punishes each one he accepts as his child.”

Fools’ words get them into constant quarrels; they are asking for a beating.

Most importantly, I want to remind you that in the last days scoffers will come, mocking the truth and following their own desires.They will say,“ What happened to the promise that Jesus is coming again? From before the times of our ancestors, everything has remained the same since the world was first created.”They deliberately forget that God made the heavens long ago by the word of his command, and he brought the earth out from the water and surrounded it with water.Then he used the water to destroy the ancient world with a mighty flood.And by the same word, the present heavens and earth have been stored up for fire. They are being kept for the day of judgment, when ungodly people will be destroyed.

The Lord mocks the mockers but is gracious to the humble.

He followed her at once, like an ox going to the slaughter. He was like a stag caught in a trap,

The scoffer will be gone, the arrogant will disappear, and those who plot evil will be killed.

For the Lord, the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, has plainly said that he is determined to crush the whole land. So scoff no more, or your punishment will be even greater.

A single rebuke does more for a person of understanding than a hundred lashes on the back of a fool.
