Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but one who hates correction is stupid.

“ How long, foolish ones, will you love ignorance? How long will you mockers enjoy mocking and you fools hate knowledge?

since you neglected all my counsel and did not accept my correction,

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and discipline.

A fool despises his father’s discipline, but a person who accepts correction is sensible.

Poverty and disgrace come to those who ignore discipline, but the one who accepts correction will be honored.

You hate instruction and turn your back on My words.

“ Get out of the way!” they said, adding,“ This one came here as a foreigner, but he’s acting like a judge! Now we’ll do more harm to you than to them.” They put pressure on Lot and came up to break down the door.

Do not be like your ancestors; the earlier prophets proclaimed to them: This is what the Lord of Hosts says: Turn from your evil ways and your evil deeds. But they did not listen or pay attention to Me”— this is the Lord’s declaration.“ Where are your ancestors now? And do the prophets live forever?But didn’t My words and My statutes that I commanded My servants the prophets overtake your ancestors? They repented and said: As the Lord of Hosts purposed to deal with us for our ways and deeds, so He has dealt with us.”

I was stupid and didn’t understand; I was an unthinking animal toward You.

The Lord spoke to Manasseh and his people, but they didn’t listen.So He brought against them the military commanders of the king of Assyria. They captured Manasseh with hooks, bound him with bronze shackles, and took him to Babylon.

The Spirit of God took control of Zechariah son of Jehoiada the priest. He stood above the people and said to them,“ This is what God says,‘ Why are you transgressing the Lord’s commands and you do not prosper? Because you have abandoned the Lord, He has abandoned you.’”But they conspired against him and stoned him at the king’s command in the courtyard of the Lord’s temple.King Joash didn’t remember the kindness that Zechariah’s father Jehoiada had extended to him, but killed his son. While he was dying, he said,“ May the Lord see and demand an account.”

“ This, then, is the judgment: The light has come into the world, and people loved darkness rather than the light because their deeds were evil.For everyone who practices wicked things hates the light and avoids it, so that his deeds may not be exposed.

The next day he went out and saw two Hebrews fighting. He asked the one in the wrong,“ Why are you attacking your neighbor?”“ Who made you a leader and judge over us?” the man replied.“ Are you planning to kill me as you killed the Egyptian?” Then Moses became afraid and thought: What I did is certainly known.

So I sent you all My servants the prophets time and time again, saying: Don’t do this detestable thing that I hate.

While he was still speaking to him, the king asked,“ Have we made you the king’s counselor? Stop, why should you lose your life?” So the prophet stopped, but he said,“ I know that God intends to destroy you, because you have done this and have not listened to my advice.”

But they kept ridiculing God’s messengers, despising His words, and scoffing at His prophets, until the Lord’s wrath was so stirred up against His people that there was no remedy.

For a command is a lamp, teaching is a light, and corrective discipline is the way to life.

But they refused to pay attention and turned a stubborn shoulder; they closed their ears so they could not hear.They made their hearts like a rock so as not to obey the law or the words that the Lord of Hosts had sent by His Spirit through the earlier prophets. Therefore great anger came from the Lord of Hosts.Just as He had called, and they would not listen, so when they called, I would not listen,” says the Lord of Hosts.“ I scattered them with a windstorm over all the nations that had not known them, and the land was left desolate behind them, with no one coming or going. They turned a pleasant land into a desolation.”

Because they hated knowledge, didn’t choose to fear the Lord,were not interested in my counsel, and rejected all my correction,
