Proverbs 23:13

Contemporary English Version (Anglicised) 2012

Don't fail to correct your children. You won't kill them by being firm,

See the chapter Copy

If you love your children, you will correct them; if you don't love them, you won't correct them.

Correct your children before it's too late; if you don't punish them, you are destroying them.

All children are foolish, but firm correction will make them change.

Listen to instruction and do your best to learn.

Correct your children, and they will be wise; children out of control disgrace their mothers.

If you correct your children, they will bring you peace and happiness.

Be patient when you are being corrected! This is how God treats his children. Don't all parents correct their children?
