Child Training

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

Do not withhold discipline from a child; although you strike him with a rod, he will not die.

Strike him with a rod, and you will deliver his soul from Sheol.

Fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath; instead, bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.

He who spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him disciplines him diligently.

These words I am commanding you today are to be upon your hearts.

And you shall teach them diligently to your children and speak of them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.

I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.

My son, keep your father’s commandment, and do not forsake your mother’s teaching.

Bind them always upon your heart; tie them around your neck.

Discipline your son, for in that there is hope; do not be party to his death.
