Only a fool despises a parent’s discipline; whoever learns from correction is wise. | A fool despises his father’s correction, but he who heeds reproof shows prudence. |
Eloquent words are not fitting for a fool; even less are lies fitting for a ruler. | Excellent speech isn’t fitting for a fool, much less do lying lips fit a prince. |
Let those who are wise understand these things. Let those with discernment listen carefully. The paths of the Lord are true and right, and righteous people live by walking in them. But in those paths sinners stumble and fall. | Who is wise, that he may understand these things? Who is prudent, that he may know them? For the ways of Yahweh are right, and the righteous walk in them, but the rebellious stumble in them. |
