Proverbs 15:31

King James Version (KJV)
Adam Clarke
Bible Commentary

The ear that heareth the reproof - That receives it gratefully and obeys it. "Advice is for them that will take it," so says one of our own old proverbs; and the meaning here is nearly the same.

Albert Barnes
Notes on the Whole Bible

The reproof of life - i. e., The reproof that leads to, or gives life, rather than that which comes from life and its experience.
