Proverbs 23:13-35 - ESV - Do not withhold discipline from a child; if you...

13 Do not withhold ¹discipline from a child; ²if you strike him with a rod, he will not die.

14 If you strike him with the rod, you will ³save his soul from Sheol.

15 ⁴My son, if your heart is wise, my heart too will be glad.

16 My ⁵inmost being^a will exult when your lips speak ⁶what is right.

17 Let not your heart ⁷envy sinners, but continue in ⁸the fear of the LORD all the day.

18 Surely ⁹there is a future, and your ¹⁰hope will not be cut off.

19 Hear, my son, and ¹¹be wise, and ¹²direct your heart in the way.

20 Be not among ¹³drunkards^b or among ¹⁴gluttonous eaters of meat,

21 for the drunkard and the glutton will come to poverty, and ¹⁵slumber will clothe them with rags

22 ¹⁶Listen to your father who gave you life, ¹⁷and do not despise your mother when she is old.

23 ¹⁸Buy truth, and do not sell it; buy wisdom, instruction, and understanding.

24 ¹⁹The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice; he who fathers a wise son will be glad in him.

25 ²⁰Let your father and mother be glad; let ²¹her who bore you rejoice.

26 My son, give me your heart, and let your eyes observe^c my ways.

27 For a prostitute is ²²a deep pit; ²³an adulteress^d is a narrow ²⁴well.

28 ²⁵She lies in wait like a robber and increases the traitors among mankind.

29 ²⁶Who has woe? Who has sorrow? Who has strife? Who has complaining? Who has ²⁷wounds without cause? Who has ²⁸redness of eyes?

30 Those who ²⁹tarry long over wine; those who go to try ³⁰mixed wine.

31 Do not look at wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the cup and goes down smoothly.

32 In the end it ³¹bites like a serpent and stings like an adder.

33 Your eyes will see strange things, and your heart utter ³²perverse things.

34 You will be like one who lies down in the midst of the sea, like one who lies on the top of a mast.^e

35 "They ³³struck me," you will say,^f"but I was not hurt; they beat me, but I did not feel it. When shall I awake? I ³⁴must have another drink."
