Proverbs15:12

12 A scorner loveth not one that reproveth him, neither will he go unto the wise .

i. e. Hateth and avoideth it; for more is here understood than is expressed, as it is Prov. 11. 21. & 12. 3. and elsewhere.

Seek their Company and Conversation, as his duty and interest obligeth him.

i. e. The godly, because he knows they who are so indeed will make Conscience of reproving him.
