¹³ Withhold not correction from the child: for if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die.

²⁴ He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.

¹⁷ Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul.

¹⁵ The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame.

¹⁸ Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not thy soul spare for his crying.
