In context
9 In the ears of a dullard, do not speak, for he will despise the good sense of thy words.
10 Do not move back the ancient boundary, and, into the fields of the fatherless, do not enter;
11 For, their near of kin, is strong, he, will plead their cause with thee.
12 Bring, to correction, thy heart, and thine ears, to the sayings of knowledge.
13 Do not withhold, from a child, correction, When thou smitest him with the rod, he shall not die:
14 Thou, with the rod, shalt smite him, and, his soul from hades, shalt thou deliver.
15 My son! if thy heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine.
