15 The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame. |
16 When the wicked are multiplied, transgression increaseth: but the righteous shall see their fall. |
17 Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul. |
18 Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he. |
19 A servant will not be corrected by words: for though he understand he will not answer. |
20 Seest thou a man that is hasty in his words? there is more hope of a fool than of him. |
21 He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child shall have him become his son at the length. |
