Exegesis
In the second clause the construct shevet musar {שֵׁבֶט מוּסָר | šēḇeṭ mūṣār} “rod of discipline” portrays an external corrective tool, governed by the hiphil imperfect verb yarḥîqennāh {יַרְחִיקֶנָּה | yarḥîqennāh} “will drive it far,” which expresses causative expulsion.
In context — Proverbs 22:15
Folly is bound up in the heart of a youth, but the rod of discipline will drive it far from him.
