Proverbs 29:15-17
Young's Literal Translation
15 A rod and reproof give wisdom, And a youth let away is shaming his mother.
16 In the multiplying of the wicked transgression multiplieth, And the righteous on their fall do look.
17 Chastise thy son, and he giveth thee comfort, Yea, he giveth delights to thy soul.

Proverbs 29:15-17
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)
17 Discipline your children, and they will give you peace;
they will bring you the delights you desire.(C)
