“You have heard that it was said, * ‘You shall not commit adultery;’* but I tell you that everyone who gazes at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart. If your right eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and throw it away from you. For it is more profitable for you that one of your members should perish, than for your whole body to be cast into Gehenna. If your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off, and throw it away from you. For it is more profitable for you that one of your members should perish, than for your whole body to be cast into Gehenna.                “It was also said, ‘Whoever shall put away his wife, let him give her a writing of divorce,’* but I tell you that whoever puts away his wife, except for the cause of sexual immorality, makes her an adulteress; and whoever marries her when she is put away commits adultery.                “Again you have heard that it was said to them of old time, ‘You shall not make false vows, but shall perform to the Lord your vows,’ but I tell you, don’t swear at all: neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God; nor by the earth, for it is the footstool of his feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. Neither shall you swear by your head, for you can’t make one hair white or black. But let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes’ and your ‘No’ be ‘No.’ Whatever is more than these is of the evil one.                “You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’* But I tell you, don’t resist him who is evil; but whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also. If anyone sues you to take away your coat, let him have your cloak also. Whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two. Give to him who asks you, and don’t turn away him who desires to borrow from you.                “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor,* and hate your enemy.*’ But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you, that you may be children of your Father who is in heaven.

Quotations about upbringing children
   
{1:4} His sons went and held a feast in the house of each one on his birthday; and they sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them. {1:5} It was so, when the days of their feasting had run their course, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all. For Job said, "It may be that my sons have sinned, and renounced God in their hearts." Job did so continually.

Job 1:4-5


To son and wife, to brother and friend,
Give not power over you while you live;
And give not your goods to another,
Lest you repent and make supplication for them again.
Whilst you yet live, and breath is in you,
Give not yourself over to anybody.
For better it is that your children should supplicate you,
Than that you should look to the hand of your sons.
In all your works keep the upper hand;
Bring not a stain on your honor.
In the day that you endest the days of your life,
And in the time of death, distribute your inheritance.

The Wisdom of Jesus the Son of Sirach 33:19-23


{11:18} Therefore you shall lay up these my words in your heart and in your soul; and you shall bind them for a sign on your hand, and they shall be for symbols between your eyes.

{11:19} You shall teach them your children, talking of them, when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you lie down, and when you rise up.

{11:20} You shall write them on the door posts of your house, and on your gates;

{11:21} that your days may be multiplied, and the days of your children, in the land which Yahweh swore to your fathers to give them, as the days of the heavens above the earth.

{11:22} For if you shall diligently keep all this commandment which I command you, to do it, to love Yahweh your God, to walk in all his ways, and to cling to him;

{11:23} then will Yahweh drive out all these nations from before you, and you shall dispossess nations greater and mightier than yourselves.

{11:24} Every place whereon the sole of your foot shall tread shall be yours: from the wilderness, and Lebanon, from the river, the river Euphrates, even to the hinder sea shall be your border.

{11:25} No man shall be able to stand before you: Yahweh your God shall lay the fear of you and the dread of you on all the land that you shall tread on, as he has spoken to you.

{11:26} Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse:

{11:27} the blessing, if you shall listen to the commandments of Yahweh your God, which I command you this day;

{11:28} and the curse, if you shall not listen to the commandments of Yahweh your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which you have not known.

Deuteronomy 11:18-28


{1:4} I have no greater joy than this, to hear about my children walking in truth.

John's Third Letter 1:4


{12:5} and you have forgotten the exhortation which reasons with you as with children, "My son, don't take lightly the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when you are reproved by him;
{12:6} For whom the Lord loves, he chastens, and scourges every son whom he receives."
{12:7} It is for discipline that you endure. God deals with you as with children, for what son is there whom his father doesn't discipline?
{12:8} But if you are without discipline, of which all have been made partakers, then are you illegitimate, and not children.
{12:9} Furthermore, we had the fathers of our flesh to chasten us, and we paid them respect. Shall we not much rather be in subjection to the Father of spirits, and live?
{12:10} For they indeed, for a few days, punished us as seemed good to them; but he for our profit, that we may be partakers of his holiness.
{12:11} All chastening seems for the present to be not joyous but grievous; yet afterward it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been exercised thereby.

The Letter to the Hebrews 12:5-11


He that loves his son will continue to lay stripes upon him,
That he may have joy of him in the end.

He that chastises his son shall have profit of him,
And shall glory of him among his acquaintance.

He that teaches his son shall provoke his enemy to jealousy;
And before friends he shall rejoice of him.

His father dies, and is as though he had not died;
For he has left one behind him like himself.

In his life, he saw and rejoiced in him;
And when he died, he sorrowed not:

He left behind him an avenger against his enemies,
And one to requite kindness to his friends.

He that makes too much of his son shall bind up his wounds;
And his heart will be troubled at every cry.

An unbroken horse becomes stubborn;
And a son left at large becomes headstrong.

Cocker your child, and he shall make you afraid:
Play with him, and he will grieve you.

Laugh not with him, lest you have sorrow with him;
And you shall gnash your teeth in the end.

Give him no liberty in his youth,
And wink not at his follies.

Bow down his neck in his youth,
And beat him on the sides while he is a child,
Lest he wax stubborn, and be disobedient to you;
And there shall be sorrow to your soul.

Chastise your son, and take pains with him,
Lest his shameless behavior be an offence to you.

The Wisdom of Jesus the Son of Sirach 30:1-13


On that day Tobit remembered the money which he had committed to Gabael in Rages of Media, and he said to himself, "I have wished for death; therefore should I not call for my son Tobias so that I may transfer the money to him before I die?"

And when he had called him, he said, "My son, when I am dead, bury me; and do not despise your mother, but honor her all the days of your life, and do what pleases her, and do not grieve her.

Remember, my son, that she endured many dangers for you, when you were in her womb; and when she is dead, bury her next to me in one grave.

My son, be mindful of the Lord our God all your days, and do not let your will be set to sin, nor to transgress his commandments; act uprightly all your life long, and do not follow the ways of the unrighteousness.

For if you deal truly, your actions shall bring prosperity to you and to all those who live justly.

Give alms from your resources; and when you give alms, do not let your eye be envious, nor turn your face from any of the poor, and then the face of God shall not be turned away from you.

If you have abundance, give alms accordingly; if you have only a little, do not be afraid to give according to that little; for you will store up a good treasure for yourself against the day of necessity, because alms deliver from death and preserve from falling into darkness.

For alms is a good gift, for all those who give it, in the sight of the most High.

Beware of all whoredom, my son, and prefer to take a wife from the posterity of your forefathers, and do not take a strange woman to wife, who is not of your father's tribe; for we are the children of the prophets, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Remember, my son, that our fathers from the beginning, all of them married wives of their own kindred, and were blessed in their children, and their posterity shall inherit the land.

Now therefore, my son, love your brethren, and do not despise in your heart your brethren, the sons and daughters of your people, by not taking a wife from among them; for in pride is destruction and much trouble, and in lewdness is decay and great want; for lewdness is the mother of famine.

Do not let the wages of any man, who has worked for you, be delayed by you, but give it to him promptly; for if you serve God, he will also repay you. Be prudent, my son, in all things you do, and be wise in all your conversation.

Do not do to any man the things which you yourself hate. Do not drink wine to make you drunken; neither let drunkenness go with you on your journey.

Give of your bread to the hungry, and of your garments to those who are naked; and according to your abundance give alms; and do not let your eye be envious, when you give alms.

Pour out your bread on the burial of the just, but give nothing to the wicked.

Ask counsel of all who are wise, and despise not any counsel which is beneficial.

Bless the Lord your God always, and desire of him that your ways may be purposeful, and that all your paths and counsels may prosper; for not every nation has counsel; but the Lord himself gives all good things, and he humbles whom he will, as he will; now therefore, my son, remember my commandments, neither let them be put out of your mind.

And now I signify this to those who I committed ten talents, to Gabael the son of Gabrias at Rages in Media.

And do not be afraid, my son, that we might become poor; for you have much wealth, if you fear God and depart from all sin and do what is pleasing in his sight."

The Book of Tobit 4:1-21


Folly is bound up in the heart of a child: the rod of discipline drives it far from him.

Proverbs 22:15


The rod of correction gives wisdom, but a child left to himself causes shame to his mother.

Proverbs 29:15


One who spares the rod hates his son, but one who loves him is careful to discipline him.

Proverbs 13:24


Don't withhold correction from a child. If you punish him with the rod, he will not die.
Punish him with the rod, and save his soul from Sheol.

Proverbs 23:13-14
