Proverbs 10:17 - Compare All Versions

Deildu

The road to life is a disciplined life; ignore correction and you’re lost for good.

He is in the way of life that keepeth instruction: But he that refuseth reproof erreth.

He is on the path of life who heeds instruction, But he who ignores reproof goes astray.

Whoever accepts correction is on the way to life, but whoever ignores correction will lead others away from life.

He is in the way of life that heedeth correction; But he that forsaketh reproof erreth.

Whoever heeds discipline shows the way to life, but whoever ignores correction leads others astray.

He who keeps instruction is in the way of life, But he who refuses correction goes astray.

He who learns from instruction and correction is on the [right] path of life [and for others his example is a path toward wisdom and blessing], But he who ignores and refuses correction goes off course [and for others his example is a path toward sin and ruin].

People who accept discipline are on the pathway to life, but those who ignore correction will go astray.

If you readily receive correction, you are walking on the path to life. But if you reject rebuke, you’re guaranteed to go astray.

Whoever heeds instruction is on the path to life, but he who rejects reproof leads others astray.
