¹¹ 
My son, do not reject or take lightly the discipline of the Lord [learn from your mistakes and the testing that comes from His correction through discipline];
Nor despise His rebuke,^(A)
12 
For those whom the Lord loves He corrects,
Even as a father corrects the son in whom he delights.

12 Whoever loves instruction and discipline loves knowledge,
But he who hates reproof and correction is stupid.

¹⁸ 
Poverty and shame will come to him who refuses instruction and discipline,
But he who accepts and learns from reproof or censure is honored.

²⁴ 
He who withholds the rod [of discipline] hates his son,
But he who loves him disciplines and trains him diligently and appropriately [with wisdom and love].^(A)

⁵ 
A [flippant, arrogant] fool rejects his father’s instruction and correction,
But he who [is willing to learn and] regards and keeps in mind a reprimand acquires good sense.

¹⁰ 
There is severe discipline for him who ^[a]turns from the way [of righteousness];
And he who hates correction will die.

¹² 
A scoffer [unlike a wise man] resents one who rebukes him and tries to teach him;
Nor will he go to the wise [for counsel and instruction].

³² 
He who neglects and ignores instruction and discipline despises himself,
But he who learns from rebuke acquires understanding [and grows in wisdom].

¹⁸ 
Discipline and teach your son while there is hope,
And do not [indulge your anger or resentment by imposing inappropriate punishment nor] desire his destruction.
