i

This word has certainly the sense of discipline, and always perhaps carries with it something of the thought of setting right; but it is used unquestionably for instructing, as in Acts 7.22, and elsewhere.

k

That is, with self-restraint and consideration, or sound mind; as "discreet," ch. 1.8.

l
