Proverbs 13:1

Lexham English Bible

13 A wise child hears the discipline of a father,
but a scoffer does not listen to a rebuke.

Proverbs 13:1

New Living Translation

13 A wise child accepts a parent’s discipline;^[a]
a mocker refuses to listen to correction.

¹⁰Only by insolence is strife set up,
and wisdom is with those who take advice.

¹⁰Pride leads to conflict;
those who take advice are wise.

¹³He who despises a word will bring destruction on himself,
but he who respects a commandment will be rewarded.

¹³People who despise advice are asking for trouble;
those who respect a command will succeed.

¹⁸Poverty and disgrace belong to him who ignores instruction,
but he who guards reproof will be honored.

¹⁸If you ignore criticism, you will end in poverty and disgrace;
if you accept correction, you will be honored.
