This OET Readers’ Version was designed to be used with the Literal Version alongside, so you won’t get the best understanding from this single viewpoint. This is still an early look into the drafted text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.
8 Don’t contend with a mighty man,
lest perhaps you fall into his hands.
2 Don’t strive with a rich man, lest perhaps he overpower you;
and turned away the hearts of kings.
3 Don’t argue with a loudmouthed man.
Don’t heap wood upon his fire.
4 Don’t make fun of a rude man,
lest your ancestors be dishonoured.
5 Don’t reproach a man when he turns from sin.
Remember that we are all worthy of punishment.
6 Don’t dishonour a man in his old age,
for some of us are also growing old.
7 Don’t rejoice over anyone’s death.
8 Don’t neglect the discourse of the wise.
Be conversant with their proverbs;
for from them you will learn discipline
9 Don’t miss the discourse of the aged,
for they also learnt from their parents,
because from them you will learn understanding,
