Proverbs 3:12

Contemporary English Version (Anglicised) 2012

The LORD corrects everyone he loves, just as parents correct their favourite child.

See the chapter Copy

Just as parents are kind to their children, the LORD is kind to all who worship him,

Our LORD, you bless everyone whom you instruct and teach by using your Law.

If you love your children, you will correct them; if you don't love them, you won't correct them.

If you correct your children, they will bring you peace and happiness.

So keep in mind that the LORD has been correcting you, just as parents correct their children.

The Lord corrects the people he loves and disciplines those he calls his own.”

I correct and punish everyone I love. So make up your minds to turn away from your sins.
