¹¹ My son, do not hate the Lord’s training.
    Do not object when he corrects you.
¹² The Lord trains those he loves.

    shows the path to life.
But anyone who refuses to be corrected
    leads others down the wrong path.

12 Anyone who loves correction loves knowledge.
    Anyone who hates to be corrected is stupid.

¹⁸ Those who turn away from their training become poor and ashamed.
    But those who accept warnings are honored.

²⁴ Those who don’t correct their children hate them.
    But those who love them are careful to correct them.

⁵ A foolish person turns their back on their parent’s correction.
    But anyone who accepts correction shows understanding.

¹⁰ Hard training is in store for anyone who leaves the right path.
    A person who hates to be corrected will die.

¹² People who make fun of others don’t like to be corrected.
    So they stay away from wise people.

³² Those who turn away from correction hate themselves.
    But anyone who accepts correction gains understanding.

¹⁸ Train your children, because then there is hope.
    Don’t do anything to bring about their deaths.
