¹⁸ Discipline your son, for there is hope;
    do not set your heart on putting him to death.

¹⁵ Folly is bound up in the heart of a child,
    but the rod of discipline drives it far from him.

¹³ Do not withhold discipline from a child;
    if you strike him with a rod, he will not die.
¹⁴ If you strike him with the rod,
    you will save his soul from Sheol.

¹⁵ The rod and reproof give wisdom,
    but a child left to himself brings shame to his mother.

¹⁷ Discipline your son, and he will give you rest;
    he will give delight to your heart.
