Proverbs 19:27 Context
25Smite a scorner, and the simple will beware; and reprooue one that hath vnderstanding, and he will vnderstand knowledge. 26He that wasteth his father, and chaseth away his mother, is a sonne that causeth shame, and bringeth reproch. 27Cease, my sonne, to heare the instruction, that causeth to erre from the words of knowledge. 28An vngodly witnesse scorneth iudgement: and the mouth of the wicked deuoureth iniquitie. 29Iudgements are prepared for scorners, and stripes for the backe of fooles.
