12And hast said, 'How have I hated instruction, And reproof hath my heart despised,


In Context

9 Lest thou give to others thy honour, And thy years to the fierce,

10 Lest strangers be filled with thy power, And thy labours in the house of a stranger,

11 And thou hast howled in thy latter end, In the consumption of thy flesh and thy food,

12 And hast said, 'How have I hated instruction, And reproof hath my heart despised,

13 And I have not hearkened to the voice of my directors, And to my teachers have not inclined mine ear.

14 As a little thing I have been all evil, In the midst of an assembly and a company.
