Withhold not correction from the child: For if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die.
He that spareth his rod hateth his son: But he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.
Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; Yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul.
The rod and reproof give wisdom: But a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame.
Chasten thy son while there is hope, And let not thy soul spare for his crying.
If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
Apply thine heart unto instruction, And thine ears to the words of knowledge.
Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; But the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.
