Proverbs 29:17-19
Legacy Standard Bible

17 (A)Discipline your son, and he will give you rest;
And he will (B)give delight to your soul.
18 Where there is (C)no [a]vision, the people (D)are out of control,
But how (E)blessed is he who keeps the law.
19 A slave will not be corrected by words alone;
For though he understands, there will be no answer.
