16 Those who keep the commandment will live; those who are heedless of their ways will die.(A)
20 Listen to advice and accept instruction, that you may gain wisdom for the future.(A)
25 Strike a scoffer, and the simple will learn prudence; reprove the intelligent, and they will gain knowledge.(A)
27 My child, stop ignoring instruction, straying[a] from words of knowledge.
