When the camels had finished drinking, the man took out a gold nose ring weighing a fifth of an ounce and two gold bracelets weighing four ounces.

So everyone gave Jacob their idols and their earrings. He buried them under the oak (big) tree near Shechem.

Aaron replied: Have your wives, sons, and daughters take off the gold earrings they are wearing. Bring them to me.

All willing, men and women alike, brought all kinds of gold jewelry: pins, brooches, earrings, signet rings, and pendants. They offered these gifts of gold to Jehovah.

So we brought as an offering to Jehovah what each man found, articles of gold, armlets and ankle bracelets, signet rings, earrings and necklaces, to make atonement for ourselves before Jehovah.

He also said: Let me ask one thing of you. Every one of you must give me the earrings you took. (The Midianites wore gold earrings.)

All his brothers and sisters and everyone who had known him before came and ate with him in his house. They comforted and consoled him over all the trouble Jehovah allowed to come upon him. Each one gave him a piece of silver and a gold ring.


I also put a ring in your nostril, earrings in your ears and a beautiful crown on your head.

I will punish her for the days in which she burned incense to the Baals, when she decked herself with her earrings and her jewels, and went after her lovers, and forgot me, said Jehovah.









You have not desired sacrifice and meal offering. You have opened my ears. Burnt offering and sin offering you have not required.

The mind of the prudent acquires knowledge. The ear of the wise one searches for knowledge.


He who has ears to hear let him listen!

You have forgotten the exhortation that reasons with you as to sons: My son, do not despise (regard lightly) discipline from Jehovah and do not lose heart when he corrects you. (Proverbs 3:11, 12)

A righteous person may strike me or correct me out of kindness. It is like lotion for my head. My head will not refuse it, because my prayer is directed against evil deeds.




Reproof influences a wise man more than a hundred stripes does to a fool.

It is better to hear the rebuke of the wise, than for a man to hear the song of fools.
