Proverbs 23:12

Compare all

10 Do not remove the ancient¹ landmark,
Nor enter the fields of the fatherless;

11 ^aFor their Redeemer is mighty;
He will plead their cause against you.

12 Apply your heart to instruction,
And your ears to words of knowledge.

13 ^aDo not withhold correction from a child,
For if you beat him with a rod, he will not die.

14 You shall beat him with a rod,
And deliver his soul from¹ hell.
