Verse 16 is found in chapter 29 of Proverbs. The rod and correction appear as instruments of formation, especially within the family. Without discipline, a child can bring shame; with proper instruction, the aim is to develop responsibility. The vision expands to society: when wickedness increases, sin multiplies, but the presence of the righteous produces stability. The chapter also warns against excessive trust in servants or subordinates without proper formation.
