King James Version
"And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof;"
— Proverbs 5:12, King James Version
“And say, How have I hated instruction, And my heart despised reproof; ”
“and say, "How I have hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof;”
“And you will say,“How I hated discipline! My heart spurned reproof!”
“Why have I hated instruction, and my heart consented not to reproof,”
“And you will say, How was teaching hated by me, and my heart put no value on training;”
“And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof;”
Lest thou give thine honour unto others, and thy years unto the cruel:
Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth; and thy labours be in the house of a stranger;
And thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed,
And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof;
And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me!
I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly.
Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well.
