Proverbs 29:15-17
Amplified Bible
15
The rod and reproof (godly instruction) give wisdom,
But a child who gets his own way brings shame to his mother.
16
When the wicked are in authority, transgression increases,
But the righteous will see the downfall of the wicked.
17
Correct your son, and he will give you comfort;
Yes, he will delight your soul.

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

but the righteous will see their downfall.(B)

they will bring you the delights you desire.(C)
