Correct thy son, and he will give thee rest;\par\tab Yea, he will give delight unto thy soul.
The rod and reproof give wisdom;\par\tab But a child left to himself causeth shame to his mother.
He that spareth his rod hateth his son;\par\tab But he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.
The proverbs of Solomon.\par\par\tab A wise son maketh a glad father;\par\tab But a foolish son is the heaviness of his mother.
Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child;\par\tab {\i But} the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.
Chasten thy son, seeing there is hope;\par\tab And set not thy heart on his destruction.
