Deuteronomy 8:5

¹⁹As many as I love, I reprove and chasten. Be zealous therefore, and repent.

¹⁴I will be his father, and he will be my son. If he commits iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men and with the stripes of the children of men;

¹⁷“Behold, happy is the man whom God corrects. Therefore do not despise the chastening of the Almighty. ¹⁸For he wounds and binds up. He injures and his hands make whole.

¹²for whom the LORD loves, he corrects, even as a father reproves the son in whom he delights.

⁵You 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; ⁶for whom the Lord loves, he disciplines, and chastises every son whom he receives.”

⁷It is for discipline that you endure. God deals with you as with children, for what son is there whom his father doesn’t discipline? ⁸But if you are without discipline, of which all have been made partakers, then you are illegitimate, and not children. ⁹Furthermore, 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? ¹⁰For they indeed for a few days disciplined us as seemed good to them, but he for our profit, that we may be partakers of his holiness. ¹¹All 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 trained by it.

³²But when we are judged, we are disciplined by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world.

¹²Blessed is the man whom you discipline, LORD,^[+] and teach out of your law,

²⁸Because he considers, and turns away from all his transgressions that he has committed, he shall surely live. He shall not die.

³²then I will punish their sin with the rod, and their iniquity with stripes.

⁹Only be careful, and keep your soul diligently, lest you forget the things which your eyes saw, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life; but make them known to your children and your children’s children—
