Sirach 30:10-12
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

10 Do not laugh with him, or you will have sorrow with him,
    and in the end you will gnash your teeth.
11 Give him no freedom in his youth;[a]
12 beat his sides while he is young,
    or else he will become stubborn and disobey you.[b](A)
