'Rod' in the Bible

In the lips of him who has knowledge wisdom is seen; but a rod is ready for the back of him who is without sense.

He who keeps back his rod is unkind to his son: the loving father gives punishment with care.

In the mouth of the foolish man is a rod for his back, but the lips of the wise will keep them safe.

By the wounds of the rod evil is taken away, and blows make clean the deepest parts of the body.

By planting the seed of evil a man will get in the grain of sorrow, and the rod of his wrath will be broken.

Foolish ways are deep-seated in the heart of a child, but the rod of punishment will send them far from him.

Do not keep back training from the child: for even if you give him blows with the rod, it will not be death to him.

Give him blows with the rod, and keep his soul safe from the underworld

A whip for the horse, a mouth-bit for the ass, and a rod for the back of the foolish.

The rod and sharp words give wisdom: but a child who is not guided is a cause of shame to his mother.

She puts her hands to the cloth-working rod, and her fingers take the wheel.
