11 For their Defender is strong. He will plead their case against you.
12 Apply your heart to instruction, And your ears to the words of knowledge.
13 Don`t withhold correction from a child. If you punish him with the rod, he will not die.
14 Punish him with the rod, And save his soul from Sheol.
15 My son, if your heart is wise, Then my heart will be glad, even mine:
16 Yes, my heart will rejoice, When your lips speak what is right.
17 Don`t let your heart envy sinners; But rather fear Yahweh all the day long.
