And you will stray from the words of knowledge.

27Cease listening, my son, to instruction and discipline

And you will stray from the words of knowledge.

27If you cease to hear instruction, my son,

you will stray from the words of knowledge.

27Cease, my son, to hear instruction

Only to err from the words of knowledge.

27My sonne, heare no more the instruction, that causeth to erre from ye words of knowledge.

27If you stop listening to instruction, my son,

you will stray from the words of knowledge.

27My son, if you stop listening to what I teach you,

you will wander away from the words of knowledge.

27My child, never stop learning about what is right.

If you stop learning, you will soon forget what you already know.

27Cease, my son, to hear instruction—To err from sayings of knowledge.
