If thou art wise, thou art wise for thyself; And if thou scoffest, thou alone shalt bear it.

If you are wise, you are wise for yourself; if your heart is full of pride, you only will have the pain of it.

Εαν γεινης σοφος, θελεις εισθαι σοφος δια σεαυτον· και εαν γεινης χλευαστης, συ μονος θελεις πασχει.

If thou be wise, thou shalt be wise for thyself: but if thou scornest, thou alone shalt bear it.
