Season 1 Episode 86
Don't Bother
7
Anyone who rebukes a mocker will get an insult in return.
Anyone who corrects the wicked will get hurt.
8
So don’t bother correcting mockers;
they will only hate you.
Verse 7
Some people will never listen to you. They refuse to follow advice. They refuse all correction.
Verse 8
Perhaps, you think that you are wise. Here is a test for you. A wise man loves the person who corrects him. A wise man learns from the person who sees his (the wise man’s) errors. If you love such a person then you are really wise.
Proverbs states facts about human nature. If people
think only of themselves, they will hate any criticism, even if the
criticism is deserved.
If people are wise, they can listen to and profit from
correction. They want mistakes to be pointed out so the mistakes
can be corrected.
If a person is evil, is a mocker, is a scoffer then that
person will hate even helpful criticism and correction.
Contemplate: How well do you take criticism? Does
it make you mad, or are you grateful to learn from it?
