1. He that loves his son will continue to lay stripes upon him, That he may have joy of him in the end.
2. He that chastises his son shall have profit of him, And shall glory of him among his acquaintance.
3. He that teaches his son shall provoke his enemy to jealousy; And before friends he shall rejoice of him.
4. His father dieth, and is as though he had not died; For he has left one behind him like himself.
5. In his life, he saw and rejoiced in him; And when he died, he sorrowed not:
6. He left behind him an avenger against his enemies, And one to requite kindness to his friends.
