Proverbs 29:16-18

World English Bible

¹⁶ When the wicked increase, sin increases;
    but the righteous will see their downfall.
¹⁷ Correct your son, and he will give you peace;
    yes, he will bring delight to your soul.
¹⁸ Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint;
    but one who keeps the law is blessed.
