- Proverbs 5:13 And have not obeyed the voice of my teachers, nor inclined mine ear to them that instructed me!

- Proverbs 5:21 For the ways of man are before the eyes ofthe LORD, and he pondereth all his goings.

- Proverbs 5:23 He shall die without instruction; and in the greatness of his folly he shall go astray.
