Whoso loveth instruction loveth knowledge: but he that hateth reproof is brutish.

Verse 1 is found in chapter 12 of Proverbs. The chapter begins by stating that loving discipline is loving knowledge. Correction distinguishes the wise person from the one who hates learning. The following proverbs contrast the stability of the righteous, wicked plans, deceptive words, and care for animals. Even the observation that the righteous care for their animals extends justice to the everyday treatment of creatures under human authority.

Wer sich gern läßt strafen, der wird klug werden; wer aber ungestraft sein will, der bleibt ein Narr.
El que ama la corrección ama la sabiduría: Mas el que aborrece la reprensión, es ignorante.
Celui qui aime la correction aime la science; Celui qui hait la réprimande est stupide.
Chi ama la correzione ama la scienza; Ma chi odia la riprensione è insensato
O QUE ama a instrução ama o conhecimento, mas o que odeia a repreensão é estúpido.
喜愛管教的,就是喜愛知識; 恨惡責備的,卻像畜牲。
