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.
He that spareth his rod hateth his son: But he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.
The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son maketh a glad father: But a foolish son is the heaviness of his mother.
Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; But the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.
Chasten thy son while there is hope, And let not thy soul spare for his crying.
