Proverbs 22:10-12

Amplified Bible

¹⁰ 
Drive out the scoffer, and contention will go away;
Even strife and dishonor will cease.
¹¹ 
He who loves purity of heart
And whose speech is gracious will have the king as his friend.
¹² 
The eyes of the Lord keep guard over knowledge and the one who has it,
But He overthrows the words of the treacherous.
