Letter "R" » reproof
«Reproof on her lip, but a smile in her eye»
«Remove thy way far from her, and come not nigh the door of her house: / Lest thou give thine honour unto others, and thy years unto the cruel: / Lest strangers be filled with thy wealth; and thy labours be in the house of a stranger; / And thou mourn at the last, when thy flesh and thy body are consumed, / And say, How have I hated instruction, and my heart despised reproof; / And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me! / I was almost in all evil in the midst of the congregation and assembly.»
«Whoso loveth instruction loveth knowledge: but he that hateth reproof is brutish.»
«Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me: / For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD: / They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.»
«Wisdom crieth without; she uttereth her voice in the streets: / She crieth in the chief place of concourse, in the openings of the gates: in the city she uttereth her words, saying, / How long, ye simple ones, will ye love simplicity? and the scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge? / Turn you at my reproof: behold, I will pour out my spirit unto you, I will make known my words unto you.»
«The pillars of heaven tremble and are astonished at his reproof.»
«The rod and reproof give wisdom; but a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame»
«Poverty and shame shall be to him that refuseth instruction: but he that regardeth reproof shall be honoured.»
«Reproof on her lips, but a smile in her eyes.»
«Reproof should not exhaust its power upon petty failings»
