For you hate My instruction and cast My words behind you.

For the choirmaster. To the tune of “The Lily of the Covenant.” A Miktam of David for instruction. When he fought Aram-naharaim and Aram-zobah, and Joab returned and struck down 12,000 Edomites in the Valley of Salt. You have rejected us, O God; You have broken us; You have been angry; restore us!

Receive my instruction instead of silver, and knowledge rather than pure gold.

Listen to instruction and be wise; do not ignore it.

Whoever heeds instruction is on the path to life, but he who ignores reproof goes astray.

He who despises instruction will pay the penalty, but the one who respects a command will be rewarded.

The fear of the LORD is the instruction of wisdom, and humility comes before honor.

The wise in heart are called discerning, and pleasant speech promotes instruction.

I observed and took it to heart; I looked and received instruction:

She opens her mouth with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.

Hear the word of the LORD, you rulers of Sodom; listen to the instruction of our God, you people of Gomorrah!

Then you are to answer them: ‘It is because your fathers have forsaken Me, declares the LORD, and followed other gods, and served and worshiped them. They abandoned Me and did not keep My instruction.
