Spanking Children

For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.

Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him.

A wise son heareth his father's instruction: but a scorner heareth not rebuke.

He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him quickly.

Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not thy soul spare for his crying.

Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.

Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul.

Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.

And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord.

Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the Lord.

Fathers, provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.

One that ruleth well his own house, having his children in subjection with all gravity;

All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.
