9 Give [05414] instruction to a wise [02450] man, and he will be yet wiser [02449]: teach [03045] a just [06662] man, and he will increase [03254] in learning [03948].

21 The wise [02450] in heart [03820] shall be called [07121] prudent [0995]: and the sweetness [04986] of the lips [08193] increaseth [03254] learning [03948].
15 My son [01121], if thine heart [03820] be wise [02449], my heart [03820] shall rejoice [08055], even mine [0589].
10 He that winketh [07169] with the eye [05869] causeth [05414] sorrow [06094]: but a prating [08193] fool [0191] shall fall [03832].
