Proverbs 9:7
He that reproveth a scorner getteth to himself shame: and he that rebuketh a wicked man getteth himself a blot.
KJV
Qui erudit derisorem, ipse injuriam sibi facit, et qui arguit impium, sibi maculam generat.
Vulgate
Ὁ παιδεύων κακοὺς λήμψεται ἑαυτῷ ἀτιμίαν· ἐλέγχων δὲ τὸν ἀσεβῆ μωμήσεται ἑαυτόν.
LXX
He that correcteth a scoffer getteth to himself reviling; And he that reproveth a wicked man getteth himself a blot.
