Proverbs 29:15

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame.

Correct thy son, and he will give thee rest; Yea, he will give delight unto thy soul.

Train up a child in the way he should go, And even when he is old he will not depart from it.

Withhold not correction from the child; For if thou beat him with the rod, he will not die.

For they indeed for a few days chastened us as seemed good to them; but he for our profit, that we may be partakers of his holiness.

The proverbs of Solomon. A wise son maketh a glad father; But a foolish son is the heaviness of his mother.

He that begetteth a fool doeth it to his sorrow; And the father of a fool hath no joy.

And his father had not displeased him at any time in saying, Why hast thou done so? and he was also a very goodly man; and he was born after Absalom.

He that spareth his rod hateth his son; But he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.

Withhold not correction from the child; For if thou beat him with the rod, he will not die.

Correct thy son, and he will give thee rest; Yea, he will give delight unto thy soul.
