Ecclesiasticus 30:13

Ecclesiasticus 30:13 Context

¹¹Giue him no liberty in his youth, and winke not at his follies. ¹²Bow downe his necke while hee is young, and beate him on the sides while he is a childe, lest hee waxe stubborne, and be disobedient vnto thee, and so bring sorrow to thine heart. ¹³Chastise thy sonne, and hold him to labour, lest his lewd behauiour be an offence vnto thee. ¹⁴Better is the poore being sound and strong of constitution, then a rich man that is afflicted in his body. ¹⁵Health and good state of body are aboue all gold, and a strong body aboue infinite wealth.
