Proverbs 29:15-17
American Standard Version
15 The rod and reproof give wisdom;
But a child left to himself causeth shame to his mother.
16 When the wicked [a]are increased, transgression increaseth;
But the righteous shall look upon their fall.
17 Correct thy son, and he will give thee rest;
Yea, he will give delight unto thy soul.
