Exegesis
The perfect verbs saneiti {שָׂנֵאתִי | śā-nē-ʾtî} ‘I hated’ and na'ats {נָאַץ | nā-ʾaṣ} ‘I despised’ form a synonymous parallelism, each governing an object: first musar {מוּסָר | mû-sār} ‘discipline’, then tochachat {תוֹכַחַת | tô-ḵa-ḥat} ‘correction’.
In context — Proverbs 5:12
And you will say, “How I hated discipline , and my heart despised correction !”
