Proverbs 10:17
Whoever heeds instruction is on the path to life, but he who ignores reproof goes astray.
He is in the way of life that keepeth instruction: but he that refuseth reproof erreth.
Note erreth: or, causeth to err
He is in the way of life who heeds correction, but he who forsakes reproof leads others astray.
He is in the way of life that heedeth correction; But he that forsaketh reproof erreth.
