Hebrews 12:5-7
International Standard Version
5 You have forgotten the encouragement that is addressed to you as sons:
“My son, do not think lightly of the Lord’s[a] discipline
or give up when you are corrected by him.
6 For the Lord[b] disciplines the one he loves,
and he punishes[c] every son he accepts.”[d]
7 What you endure disciplines you: God is treating you as sons. Is there a son whom his father does not discipline?
