Proverbs 29:16-18
Complete Jewish Bible
16 When the wicked flourish, wrongdoing flourishes;
but the righteous will witness their downfall.
17 Discipline your son, and he will give you rest;
yes, he will be your delight.
18 Without a prophetic vision, the people throw off all restraint;
but he who keeps Torah is happy.

16 When the wicked thrive, so does sin,
but the righteous will see their downfall.(A)
17 Discipline your children, and they will give you peace;
they will bring you the delights you desire.(B)
18 Where there is no revelation, people cast off restraint;
but blessed is the one who heeds wisdom’s instruction.(C)
