Proverbs 29:17-19

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

¹⁷ Discipline your children, and they will give you rest;
    they will give delight to your heart.
¹⁸ Where there is no prophecy, the people cast off restraint,
    but happy are those who keep the law.
¹⁹ By mere words servants are not disciplined,
    for though they understand, they will not give heed.
