He that reproves evil [men] shall get dishonor to himself, and he that rebukes an ungodly [man] shall disgrace himself.

Rebuke not evil men, lest they should hate you: rebuke a wise man, and he will love you.

Son, if you are wise for yourself, you shall also be wise for your neighbors; and if you should prove wicked, you alone will bear the evil. [ 9:12A] He that stays himself upon falsehoods, attempts to rule the winds, and the same will pursue birds in their fight: [ 9:12B] for he has forsaken the ways of his own vineyard, and he has caused the axles of his own cart to go astray; [ 9:12C] and he goes through a dry desert, and [a land] appointed to drought, and he gathers barrenness with his hands.

Scourges are preparing for the intemperate, and punishments likewise for fools.

But He gives more grace. Therefore He says: "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble."

Likewise, younger [people], subject yourselves to [the] elders. And all of you be subject to one another, and be clothed with humility, because "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble."
