Proverbs 13:24

¹⁷Correct your son, and he will give you peace; yes, he will bring delight to your soul.

¹³Don’t withhold correction from a child. If you punish him with the rod, he will not die. ¹⁴Punish him with the rod, and save his soul from Sheol.

¹⁵The rod of correction gives wisdom, but a child left to himself causes shame to his mother.

¹⁸Discipline your son, for there is hope; don’t be a willing party to his death.

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

⁶for whom the Lord loves, he disciplines, and chastises every son whom he receives.”

⁷It is for discipline that you endure. God deals with you as with children, for what son is there whom his father doesn’t discipline? ⁸But if you are without discipline, of which all have been made partakers, then you are illegitimate, and not children.

¹²for whom the LORD loves, he corrects, even as a father reproves the son in whom he delights.

³⁶But he who sins against me wrongs his own soul. All those who hate me love death.”

²⁶“If anyone comes to me, and doesn’t disregard^[+] his own father, mother, wife, children, brothers, and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he can’t be my disciple.
