Hebrews 12:9-11

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

And God Is Disciplining You For Your Benefit

⁹ Furthermore, we had fathers of our flesh^[a] as discipliners and were respecting them— but shall we not much more be subject to the Father of [our] spirits and live? ¹⁰ For the ones were disciplining us for a few days according to the thing seeming good to them; but the One does so for our benefit^[b], so that we may share-in His holiness.

And His Discipline Will Yield The Fruit of Righteousness

¹¹ And all discipline for the present does not seem to be a thing of joy, but of grief— but later it yields^[c] the peaceful fruit of righteousness to the ones having been trained by it.
