Sirach 30:7-9

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁷ For the souls of his sons he shall bind up his wounds, and at every cry his bowels shall be troubled.

⁸ A horse not broken becometh stubborn, and a child left to himself will become headstrong.

⁹ Give thy son his way, and he shall make thee afraid: play with him, and he shall make thee sorrowful.
