Proverbs 19:18-20

New Century Version

¹⁸ Correct your children while there is still hope;
    do not let them destroy themselves.

¹⁹ People with quick tempers will have to pay for it.
    If you help them out once, you will have to do it again.

²⁰ Listen to advice and accept correction,
    and in the end you will be wise.
