Proverbs 29:15-17

New International Version

¹⁵ A rod and a reprimand impart wisdom,
    but a child left undisciplined disgraces its mother.^(A)

¹⁶ When the wicked thrive, so does sin,
    but the righteous will see their downfall.^(B)

¹⁷ Discipline your children, and they will give you peace;
    they will bring you the delights you desire.^(C)
