17 Whoever heeds discipline shows the way to life, but whoever ignores correction leads others astray.
17 He is in the way of life that keepeth instruction: but he that refuseth reproof erreth.
17 Whoever heeds instruction is on the path to life, but he who rejects reproof leads others astray.
17 The road to life is a disciplined life; ignore correction and you're lost for good.
17 He who keeps instruction is in the way of life, But he who refuses correction goes astray.
17 People who accept discipline are on the pathway to life, but those who ignore correction will go astray.
13 Whoever scorns instruction will pay for it, but whoever respects a command is rewarded.
13 Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.
13 Whoever despises the word brings destruction on himself, but he who reveres the commandment will be rewarded.
13 Ignore the Word and suffer; honor God's commands and grow rich.
13 He who despises the word will be destroyed, But he who fears the commandment will be rewarded.
13 People who despise advice are asking for trouble; those who respect a command will succeed.
(Read Proverbs 13:13)
He that stands in awe of God, and reverences his word, shall escape destruction, and be rewarded for his godly fear.
