GNT

NIV

11 The sayings of the wise are like the sharp sticks that shepherds use to guide sheep, and collected proverbs are as lasting as firmly driven nails. They have been given by God, the one Shepherd of us all.
11 The words of the wise are like goads, their collected sayings like firmly embedded nails—given by one shepherd.
