15 If a child is corrected, they become wise. But a child who is not corrected brings shame to their mother.
17 If you correct your children, they will give you peace. They will bring you the delights you desire.
19 Servants can’t be corrected only by words. Even if they understand, they won’t obey.
21 A servant who has been spoiled from youth will have no respect for you later on.
