Proverbs 3:12

Douay-Rheims version of The Bible - 1752 version

For whom the Lord loveth, he chastiseth: and as a father in the son he pleaseth himself.

See the chapter Copy

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

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

Instruct thy son, and he shall refresh thee, and shall give delight to thy soul.

He that spareth the rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him correcteth him betimes.

Thou waterest the hills from thy upper rooms: the earth shall be filled with the fruit of thy works:

For whom the Lord loveth, he chastiseth; and he scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
