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 ruinin the assembly and in the congregation.”
15 Drink water out of your own cisternand running water from your own well.
16 Why should water flow out of your spring?Why should your streams flow into the streets?
17 They should be yours alone,so do not share them with strangers.
18 Let your own fountain be blessed,and enjoy the girl you married when you were young,
