Proverbs 23:13-14

And (B)rescue his soul from Sheol.
Proverbs 29:15-17
New American Standard Bible
15 The (A)rod and a rebuke give wisdom,
But a child [a]who gets his own way (B)brings shame to his mother.
16 When the wicked [b]increase, wrongdoing increases;
But the (C)righteous will see their downfall.
17 (D)Correct your son, and he will give you comfort;
He will also [c](E)delight your soul.
