Proverbs 9:6 in Context — Proverbs 9
4 Qualquer um que for ingênuo, venha aqui.Aos que têm falta de entendimento, ela diz:
5 Vinde, comei do meu pão; e bebei do vinho que misturei.
6 Abandonai a tolice; e vivei; e andai pelo caminho da prudência.
7 Aquele que repreende ao zombador, toma desonra para si mesmo; e o que tenta corrigir ao perverso acaba sendo manchado.
8 Não repreendas ao zombador, para que ele não te odeie; repreende ao sábio, e ele te amará.
