But blessed is the man whom the Lord has reproved; and reject not the chastening of the Almighty.

Blessed is the man whom You shall chasten, O Lord, and shall teach him out of Your law;

But when we are judged, we are disciplined by the Lord, in order that we may not be condemned with the world.

And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons: "My son, do not despise the discipline of the LORD, nor be discouraged when you are reproved;

For whom the LORD loves He disciplines, and scourges every son whom He receives."

As many as I love, I rebuke and discipline. Be zealous therefore, and repent.

He shall be defiled in the evil day, and in the day of affliction, until he is utterly consumed.

Yet now that pain has come upon you, and touched you, you are troubled.

For the young [men] shall hunger, and the youths shall be weary, and the choice [men] shall be powerless;

but they that wait on God shall renew [their] strength; they shall put forth new feathers like eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk, and not faint.

Therefore, since we have this ministry, as we received mercy, we do not despair,

Therefore we do not despair, but even if our outward man is being destroyed, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day.

For our momentary light affliction is working out for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory,

For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, lest you be weary and discouraged in your souls.

It is for discipline [that] you endure; God deals with you as with sons. For what son is there whom a father does not discipline?

Furthermore, we have had human fathers who corrected us, and we respected [them]. Shall we not much more readily be in subjection to the Father of spirits and live?

Now no discipline seems to be joyful for the present, but painful; nevertheless, later it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those having been trained by it.
