Proverbs 5:12
World English Bible (WEB)
and say, “How I have hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof.
In context
10 lest strangers feast on your wealth, and your labors enrich another man’s house.
11 You will groan at your latter end, when your flesh and your body are consumed,
12 and say, “How I have hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof.
13 I haven’t obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor turned my ear to those who instructed me!
14 I have come to the brink of utter ruin, among the gathered assembly.”
