Proverbs 13:23-25
The Voice
23 Though the fields of the poor yield a bumper crop
in a land without justice, it is stolen out from under them.
24 Those who spare the rod of discipline hate their children,
but those who are quick to correct them show true love.
25 Those who do right have plenty to eat,
while those who do wrong go hungry.
Proverbs 13:23-25
New International Version
23 An unplowed field produces food for the poor,
but injustice sweeps it away.
24 Whoever spares the rod(A) hates their children,
but the one who loves their children is careful to discipline(B) them.(C)
25 The righteous eat to their hearts’ content,
but the stomach of the wicked goes hungry.(D)
