27 Stop listening to instruction, my son, and you will stray from the words of knowledge.
27 Cease, my son, to hear the instruction that causeth to err from the words of knowledge.
27 Cease to hear instruction, my son, and you will stray from the words of knowledge.
27 If you quit listening, dear child, and strike off on your own, you'll soon be out of your depth.
27 Cease listening to instruction, my son, And you will stray from the words of knowledge.
27 If you stop listening to instruction, my child, you will turn your back on knowledge.
