Hebrews 12:6-9

NAS

NIV

6 FOR THOSE WHOM THE LORD LOVES HE DISCIPLINES, AND HE SCOURGES EVERY SON WHOM HE RECEIVES."
6 because the Lord disciplines the one he loves, and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son.”
7 It is for discipline that you endure; God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline?
7 Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as his children. For what children are not disciplined by their father?
8 But if you are without discipline, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate children and not sons.
8 If you are not disciplined—and everyone undergoes discipline—then you are not legitimate, not true sons and daughters at all.
9 Furthermore, we had earthly fathers to discipline us, and we respected them; shall we not much rather be subject to the Father of spirits, and live?
9 Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of spirits and live!
