# The rod and correction give wisdom
"If a parent uses the rod on his child and corrects him, the child will become wise" or "If parents discipline their child and tell him when he has done wrong, the child will learn to live wisely"
# The rod
"discipline". Parents in Israel used wooden rods as instruments to discipline children by striking them.
# correction
