Proverbs 5:12

12 "Oh, how I hated discipline! How my heart despised correction!

Proverbs 5:12 In-Context

10 or strangers will benefit from your strength and you will have to work hard in a pagan's house.
11 Then you will groan when your end comes, when your body and flesh are consumed. You will say,
12 "Oh, how I hated discipline! How my heart despised correction!
13 I didn't listen to what my teachers said to me, nor did I keep my ear open to my instructors.
14 I almost reached total ruin in the assembly and in the congregation."
