He lays up sound wisdom for the righteous: he is a shield to them that walk uprightly.

Lest you should ponder the path of life, her ways are unstable, that you can not know them.

When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his command: when he appointed the foundations of the earth:

Even a child is known by his acts, whether his work is pure, and whether it is right.

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

Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.

If you have nothing to pay, why should he take away your bed from under you?

Withhold not correction from the child: for if you beat him with a rod, he shall not die.

The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice: and he that begets a wise child shall have joy in him.

For better it is that it be said unto you, Come up here; than that you should be put lower in the presence of the prince whom your eyes have seen.

Though you should crush a fool in a mortar among grain with a pestle, yet will not his foolishness depart from him.

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

He that carefully brings up his servant from a child shall have him become his son in the end.

Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.
