A fool despiseth his father's instruction: but he that regardeth reproof is prudent.

He that refuseth instruction despiseth his own soul: but he that heareth reproof getteth understanding.

The fear of the LORD is the instruction of wisdom; and before honour is humility.

Understanding is a wellspring of life unto him that hath it: but the instruction of fools is folly.

Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that thou mayest be wise in thy latter end.

Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.

But they are altogether brutish and foolish: the stock is a doctrine of vanities.

But they obeyed not, neither inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff, that they might not hear, nor receive instruction.

Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Go and tell the men of Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, Will ye not receive instruction to hearken to my words? saith the LORD.

So it shall be a reproach and a taunt, an instruction and an astonishment unto the nations that are round about thee, when I shall execute judgments in thee in anger and in fury and in furious rebukes. I the LORD have spoken it.

And the revolters are profound to make slaughter, though I have been a rebuker of them all.
