Proverbs 3:11

Douay-Rheims version of The Bible - 1752 version

My son, reject not the correction of the Lord: and do not faint when thou art chastised by him:

See the chapter Copy

Blessed is the mall whom God correcteth: refuse not therefore the chastising of the lord.

Such as I love, I rebuke and chastise. Be zealous therefore, and do penance.

But whilst we are judged, we are chastised by the Lord, that we be not condemned with this world.

Therefore, seeing we have this ministration, according as we have obtained mercy, we faint not;

For think diligently upon him that endured such opposition from sinners against himself; that you be not wearied, fainting in your minds.

If thou lose hope being weary in the day of distress, thy strength shall be diminished.

But now the scourge is come upon thee, and thou faintest. It hath touched thee, and thou art troubled.

That thou mayst consider in thy heart, that as a man traineth up his son, so the Lord thy God hath trained thee up.
