In the lips of the intelligent, is found wisdom, but, a rod, is for the back of him that lacketh sense.

He that withholdeth his rod, hateth his son, - but, he that loveth him, carefully correcteth him.

In the mouth of the foolish, is a haughty rod, but, as for the lips of the wise, thou shalt give heed to them!

He that soweth perversity, shall reap trouble, and, the rod of his wrath, shall be ready.

Foolishness, is bound up in the heart of a youth, the rod of correction, shall drive it far from him.

Do not withhold, from a child, correction, When thou smitest him with the rod, he shall not die:

Thou, with the rod, shalt smite him, and, his soul from hades, shalt thou deliver.

A whip for the horse, a bridle a for the ass, and a rod for the back of dullards.

A rod with rebuke, giveth wisdom, but, a youth unrestrained, bringeth shame to his mother.
