And at the end of your life you will groan when your flesh and your body are wasted away.
And you will say,“How I hated discipline! My heart spurned reproof!
For I did not obey my teachers and I did not heed my instructors.
I almost came to complete ruin in the midst of the whole congregation!”
Drink water from your own cistern and running water from your own well.
Should your springs be dispersed outside, your streams of water in the wide plazas?
Let them be for yourself alone, and not for strangers with you.
