It is better to heed the rebuke of a wise person than to listen to the song of fools.

Pay attention to a wise person’s warning. That’s better than listening to the songs of those who are foolish.

It is better for a man to hear the rebuke of the wise than to hear the song of fools.

Better to be criticized by a wise person than to be praised by a fool.

It is better to listen to rebuke from a wise person than to listen to the song of fools,

It is better to listen to the rebuke of a wise person Than for one to listen to the song of fools.

It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise Than for a man to hear the song of fools.

It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise, than for a man to hear the song of fools.

It is better to listen to rebuke from a wise person than to listen to the song of fools,

[ It is] better to hear the rebuke of the wise, than for a man to hear the song of fools.

It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise than for a man to hear the song of fools.

耳朵聽賜生命之勸責的、必居於智慧人中間。規避管教的是鄙視自己；聽從勸責的擁有己心。

義人儘可以拿忠愛作鎚打我，責備我，惡人的油可別美化我的頭呀！我還存在時候，我的禱告總要針對着他們的壞事。

規避管教的必遭窮乏恥辱；注意受勸責的必得尊榮。

坐城門口的談論我；醉酒之徒以我為歌曲。

愛友加的創傷、出於忠誠；仇恨者連連親嘴、多而且詐。

藐視訓話的自取敗亡；敬畏誡命的必得善報。

凡我所愛的、我就指責管教；所以你要發熱心，要悔改。

不要勸責褻慢人，免得他恨你：要勸責智慧人，他必愛你。

叱責明理人一下，勝過責打愚頑人一百下。
