Listen to counsel and accept discipline, so that in the end you may be wise.
In context
18Discipline your son while there is hope, but do not set your heart on his death. 19A hot-tempered man pays the penalty; rescue him once and you will have to do it again. 20Listen to counsel and accept discipline, so that in the end you may be wise. 21Many are the plans in a man’s heart, but it is Yahweh’s counsel that stands. 22What is desirable in a man is his kindness, and better to be poor than a liar.
