Do not withhold discipline from a child; if you strike him with a rod, he will not die.
Discipline your son, for there is hope; do not set your heart on putting him to death.
Whoever spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is diligent to discipline him.
Discipline your son, and he will give you rest; he will give delight to your heart.
The rod and reproof give wisdom, but a child left to himself brings shame to his mother.
