Whoever heeds discipline shows the way to life, but whoever ignores correction leads others astray.

Anyone who pays attention to correction shows the path to life. But anyone who refuses to be corrected leads others down the wrong path.

Whoever heeds instruction is on the path to life, but he who rejects reproof leads others astray.

The one who follows instruction is on the path to life, but the one who rejects correction goes astray.

One who is on the path of life follows instruction, But one who ignores a rebuke goes astray.

He who keeps instruction is in the way of life, But he who refuses correction goes astray.

He is in the way of life that heedeth correction; But he that forsaketh reproof erreth.

The one who follows instruction is on the path to life, but the one who rejects correction goes astray.

He[ is in] the way of life that keepeth instruction: but he that refuseth reproof erreth.

The one who heeds instruction is on the way to life, but the one who rejects rebuke goes astray.

Whoever abandons the right path will be severely disciplined; whoever hates correction will die.

In view of all this, make every effort to respond to God’s promises. Supplement your faith with a generous provision of moral excellence, and moral excellence with knowledge,and knowledge with self control, and self control with patient endurance, and patient endurance with godliness,and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love for everyone.The more you grow like this, the more productive and useful you will be in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.But those who fail to develop in this way are shortsighted or blind, forgetting that they have been cleansed from their old sins.So, dear brothers and sisters, work hard to prove that you really are among those God has called and chosen. Do these things, and you will never fall away.Then God will give you a grand entrance into the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Wisdom is a tree of life to those who embrace her; happy are those who hold her tightly.

For their command is a lamp and their instruction a light; their corrective discipline is the way to life.

You will say,“ How I hated discipline! If only I had not ignored all the warnings!

Jesus replied,“ But even more blessed are all who hear the word of God and put it into practice.”

Whoever stubbornly refuses to accept criticism will suddenly be destroyed beyond recovery.

You ignored my advice and rejected the correction I offered.So I will laugh when you are in trouble! I will mock you when disaster overtakes you—

“ Anyone who listens to my teaching and follows it is wise, like a person who builds a house on solid rock.Though the rain comes in torrents and the floodwaters rise and the winds beat against that house, it won’t collapse because it is built on bedrock.But anyone who hears my teaching and doesn’t obey it is foolish, like a person who builds a house on sand.When the rains and floods come and the winds beat against that house, it will collapse with a mighty crash.”

My child, never forget the things I have taught you. Store my commands in your heart.If you do this, you will live many years, and your life will be satisfying.

Don’t let your mouth make you sin. And don’t defend yourself by telling the Temple messenger that the promise you made was a mistake. That would make God angry, and he might wipe out everything you have achieved.

Take hold of my instructions; don’t let them go. Guard them, for they are the key to life.

My father taught me,“ Take my words to heart. Follow my commands, and you will live.

Be careful that you do not refuse to listen to the One who is speaking. For if the people of Israel did not escape when they refused to listen to Moses, the earthly messenger, we will certainly not escape if we reject the One who speaks to us from heaven!

But the king interrupted him and said,“ Since when have I made you the king’s counselor? Be quiet now before I have you killed!” So the prophet stopped with this warning:“ I know that God has determined to destroy you because you have done this and have refused to accept my counsel.”

To learn, you must love discipline; it is stupid to hate correction.

They rejected my advice and paid no attention when I corrected them.

So we must listen very carefully to the truth we have heard, or we may drift away from it.

Listen to the words of the wise; apply your heart to my instruction.For it is good to keep these sayings in your heart and always ready on your lips.I am teaching you today— yes, you— so you will trust in the Lord.
