American Standard Version
"I was well-nigh in all evil In the midst of the assembly and congregation. "
— Proverbs 5:14, American Standard Version
“I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly.”
“I have come to the brink of utter ruin, in the midst of the gathered assembly."”
“I almost came to complete ruin in the midst of the whole congregation!””
“I have almost been in all evil, in the midst of the church and of the congregation.”
And thou mourn at thy latter end, When thy flesh and thy body are consumed,
And say, How have I hated instruction, And my heart despised reproof;
Neither have I obeyed the voice of my teachers, Nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me!
I was well-nigh in all evil In the midst of the assembly and congregation.
Drink waters out of thine own cistern, And running waters out of thine own well.
Should thy springs be dispersed abroad, And streams of water in the streets?
Let them be for thyself alone, And not for strangers with thee.
