Proverbs 13:23-25
King James Version
23 Much food is in the tillage of the poor: but there is that is destroyed for want of judgment.
24 He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.
25 The righteous eateth to the satisfying of his soul: but the belly of the wicked shall want.

Proverbs 13:23-25
New American Standard Bible
23 (A)Abundant food is in the uncultivated ground of the poor,
But [a]it is swept away by injustice.
24 He who (B)withholds his [b]rod hates his son,
But he who loves him [c](C)disciplines him diligently.
25 The (D)righteous [d]has enough to satisfy his appetite,
But the stomach of the (E)wicked is in need.
