Proverbs 5:14

Revised Standard Version (RSV-CI)

I was at the point of utter ruin in the assembled congregation.”

See the chapter Copy

But as for me, my feet had almost stumbled, my steps had well nigh slipped.

He who heeds instruction is on the path to life, but he who rejects reproof goes astray.

He who walks with wise men becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm.

I did not listen to the voice of my teachers or incline my ear to my instructors.

Drink water from your own cistern, flowing water from your own well.
