- Speak not in the ears of a fool: for he will despise the wisdom of thy words.
- Remove not the old landmark; and enter not into the fields of the fatherless:
- For their redeemer is mighty; he shall plead their cause with thee.
- Apply thine heart unto instruction, and thine ears to the words of knowledge.
- Withhold not correction from the child: for if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die.
|
- Do not speak in the hearing of a fool, For he will despise the wisdom of your words.
- Do not move the ancient boundary Or go into the fields of the fatherless,
- For their Redeemer is strong; He will plead their case against you.
- Apply your heart to discipline And your ears to words of knowledge.
- Do not hold back discipline from the child, Although you strike him with the rod, he will not die.
|
- Thou shalt beat him with the rod, and shalt deliver his soul from hell.
- My son, if thine heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine.
- Yea, my reins shall rejoice, when thy lips speak right things.
- Let not thine heart envy sinners: but be thou in the fear of the LORD all the day long.
- For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off.
|
- You shall strike him with the rod And rescue his soul from Sheol.
- My son, if your heart is wise, My own heart also will be glad;
- And my inmost being will rejoice When your lips speak what is right.
- Do not let your heart envy sinners, But live in the fear of the LORD always.
- Surely there is a future, And your hope will not be cut off.
