The ear that hears the reproof of life abides among the wise.
Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.
Poverty and shame shall be to him that refuses instruction: but he that regards reproof shall be honored.
He that walks with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.
The light of the eyes rejoices the heart: and a good report makes the bones healthy.
He that refuses instruction despises his own soul: but he that hears reproof gets understanding.
A fool despises his father's instruction: but he that regards reproof is prudent.
The heart of the prudent gets knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge.
Hear counsel, and receive instruction, that you may be wise in your latter days.
As an earring of gold, and an ornament of fine gold, so is a wise reprover upon an obedient ear.
It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise, than for a man to hear the song of fools.
Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.
They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.
