He, that being often reproved hardeneth his neck, shall suddenly be destroyed, and that without remedy.
La persona que es corregida muchas veces pero tercamente se niega a escuchar enfrentará repentinamente una destrucción que no se puede deshacer.
Quien rechaza constantemente la corrección terminará enfrentando consecuencias irreversibles.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This proverb comes from the collection of wise sayings traditionally attributed to King Solomon, written around 950-700 BC. The imagery of 'hardening the neck' comes from the practice of yoking oxen - a stubborn animal would stiffen its neck against the yoke rather than submit to direction. In ancient Israel, accepting correction and wisdom was seen as essential for a well-ordered life and society.
