Nauczaj mądrego, a będzie tym roztropniejszy; ucz sprawiedliwego, a będzie tym uczeńszy.
Uczyń to mądremu, a mędrszym będzie; naucz sprawiedliwego, a będzie umiejętniejszym.
Wesprzyj mądrego, a tym bardziej zmądrzeje; poucz sprawiedliwego, a pomnoży wiedzę!
Dodaj mądremu, a będzie jeszcze mędrszym; naucz sprawiedliwego, a jeszcze przybierze wiedzy.
Uczyń to mądremu, a mędrszym będzie; naucz sprawiedliwego, a będzie umiejętniejszym.
Upomnij mądrego, a będzie mądrzejszy; poucz sprawiedliwego, a pomnoży swą wiedzę.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Give [instruction] to a wise [man],.... In the Hebrew text it is only "give to a wise man"; give him reproof, correction, chastisement, doctrine, or instruction, be it what it will, he will be the better for it. The Septuagint, Vulgate Latin, Syriac, and Arabic versions, render it, "give occasion"; to him of showing his wisdom and of improving in it:
and he will be yet wiser; he will learn something by every him that is given him, whether it be by way of rebuke, or by way of instruction;
teach a just [man]; one that is truly so, that has seen the insufficiency of his own righteousness, and has renounced that, and does not trust in it; and who has learned Christ, as the Lord his righteousness; has seen the glory, fulness, and suitableness of his righteousness, and trusts unto it and depends upon it; and in consequence of this lives soberly, righteously, and godly; teach such a man the doctrines of the Gospel, and every lesson of obedience and duty,
and he will increase in learning; he will grow in grace, and in the knowledge of Christ and all divine things; see Matthew 13:12.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
These verses seem somewhat to interrupt the continuity of the invitation which Wisdom utters. The order of thought is, however, this: âI speak to you, the simple, the open ones, for you have yet ears to hear: but from the scorner or evil doer, as such, I turn away.â The words are illustrated by Matthew 13:11 ff.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Proverbs 9:9. Give instruction to a wise man] Literally give to the wise, and he will be wise. Whatever you give to such, they reap profit from it. They are like the bee, they extract honey from every flower.
