^6 (A)Train up a child in the way he should go,
^[a]And when he is old he will not depart from it.

¹⁵ Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child;
^(A)The rod of correction will drive it far from him.

^13 (A)Do not withhold correction from a child,
For if you beat him with a rod, he will not die.
¹⁴ You shall beat him with a rod,
And deliver his soul from ^[a]hell.

¹⁵ The rod and rebuke give ^(A)wisdom,
But a child left to himself brings shame to his mother.
