5  A fool ^edespises his father’s ^finstruction,

but whoever ^gheeds reproof is prudent.

10  There is severe discipline for him who forsakes the way;

whoever ^khates reproof will die.

12  A scoffer does not like to be reproved;

he will not go to the wise.

22  ^wWithout counsel plans fail,

but with many advisers they succeed.

31  The ear that listens to life-giving reproof

will dwell among the wise.

32  Whoever ^dignores ^einstruction despises himself,

but he who listens to reproof ^fgains intelligence.

33  ^gThe fear of the Lord is ^hinstruction in wisdom,

and ⁱhumility comes before honor.
