but the one who loves their children is careful to discipline them.

24 Whoever spares the rod hates his son,

but he who loves him is diligent to discipline him.

24 He that spareth his rod hateth his son:

But he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.

24 If you do not punish your children, you don’t love them,

but if you love your children, you will correct them.

24 He that spareth his rod hateth his son;

But he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.

24 He that spareth his rod hateth his son; but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.

but the one who loves him disciplines him diligently.

24 Those who spare the rod hate their children,

but those who love them are diligent to discipline them.

24 He who withholds his rod hates his child,

but he who loves him gives him discipline.

24 Those who don’t correct their children hate them.

But those who love them are careful to train them.

24 He who withholds his rod hates his son,

But he who loves him disciplines him diligently.
