Proverbs 29:15-17
Easy-to-Read Version
15 Punishment and discipline can make children wise, but children who are never corrected will bring shame to their mother.
16 If the wicked are ruling the nation, sin will be everywhere, but those who live right will win in the end.
17 Correct your children whenever they are wrong. Then you will always be proud of them. They will never make you ashamed.

New International Version
15 A rod and a reprimand impart wisdom,
but a child left undisciplined disgraces its mother.(A)
16 When the wicked thrive, so does sin,
but the righteous will see their downfall.(B)

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