Blessed is the man whom thou chasten, O LORD, and teach out of thy law,
Behold, happy is the man whom God corrects. Therefore do not despise thou the chastening of the Almighty.
But when we are judged by Lord, we are chastened so that we may not be condemned with the world.
As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Be zealous therefore, and repent.
It is good for me that I have been afflicted, that I may learn thy statutes.
Before I was afflicted I went astray, but now I observe thy word.
And thou shall consider in thy heart, that, as a man chastens his son, so LORD thy God chastens thee.
The voice of LORD cries to the city, and [the man of] wisdom will see thy name. Hear ye the rod, and who has appointed it.
