Exegesis
The second clause mirrors this pattern: the piel imperative wə-hôkîaḥ {וְהוֹכִיחַ | wə-hô-kî-aḥ} ‘reprove’ addresses the discerning (navon {נָבוֹן | nā-vōn}), and the hiphil imperfect yā-vîn {יָבִין | yā-vîn} ‘he will discern’ presents the resulting knowledge (dā-ʽaṯ {דָּעַת | dā-ʽaṯ}). This parallelism highlights how discipline transforms both the simple and the discerning.
In context — Proverbs 19:25
Strike a scoffer, and the simple will become shrewd; and reprove one who is understanding, and he will discern knowledge .
