Proverbs 29:17 Context
15The rod and reproofe giue wisedome: but a child left to himselfe bringeth his mother to shame. 16When the wicked are multiplied, transgression increaseth: but the righteous shall see their fall. 17Correct thy sonne, and hee shall giue thee rest: yea he shall giue delight vnto thy soule. 18Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the Law, happy is he. 19A seruant will not be corrected by words: for though hee vnderstand, hee will not answere.
