'Instruction' in the Bible

For whatever was written beforehand was written for our instruction, in order that through patient endurance and through the encouragement of the scriptures we may have hope.

Now these [things] happened to those [people] as an example, but are written for our instruction, on whom the ends of the ages have come.

But in giving this instruction I do not praise [you], because you come together not for the better but for the worse.

And fathers, do not make your children angry, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.

But the goal of our instruction is love from a pure heart and a good conscience and a faith without hypocrisy,

I am setting before you this instruction, Timothy [my] child, in accordance with the prophecies spoken long ago about you, in order that by them you may fight the good fight,

preach the word, be ready in season [and] out of season, reprove, rebuke, exhort, with all patience and instruction.

holding fast to the faithful message according to the teaching, in order that he may be able both to exhort with sound instruction and to reprove those who speak against [it].

But you, speak [the things] which are fitting for sound instruction.
