²² Whoever finds a wife finds a good thing,
    and obtains favor of Yahweh.

¹⁴ House and riches are an inheritance from fathers,
    but a prudent wife is from Yahweh.

¹⁸ Discipline your son, for there is hope;
    don’t be a willing party to his death.

⁷ A righteous man walks in integrity.
    Blessed are his children after him.

⁶ Train up a child in the way he should go,
    and when he is old he will not depart from it.

¹⁵ Folly is bound up in the heart of a child:
    the rod of discipline drives it far from him.

¹³ Don’t withhold correction from a child.
    If you punish him with the rod, he will not die.
¹⁴ Punish him with the rod,
    and save his soul from Sheol.^[a]

¹¹ Be wise, my son,
    and bring joy to my heart,
    then I can answer my tormentor.

³ Whoever loves wisdom brings joy to his father;
    but a companion of prostitutes squanders his wealth.
