15 The rod of correction gives wisdom,but a child left to himself causes shame to his mother.
16 When the wicked increase, sin increases;but the righteous will see their downfall.
17 Correct your son, and he will give you peace;yes, he will bring delight to your soul.
18 Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint;but one who keeps the Torah is blessed.
19 A servant can’t be corrected by words.Though he understands, yet he will not respond.
20 Do you see a man who is hasty in his words?There is more hope for a fool than for him.
21 He who pampers his servant from youthwill have him become a son in the end.
