Proverbs 3:12

Modern King James Version

for whom Jehovah loves He corrects, even as a father corrects the son in whom he delights.

See the chapter Copy

As a father pities his children, Jehovah pities those who fear Him.

Blessed is the man whom You chasten, O Jehovah, to teach him out of Your Law;

He who spares his rod hates his son, but he who loves him chastens him early.

Correct your son, and he shall give you rest; yea, he shall give delight to your soul.

And you have known with your heart, that, as a man chastens his son, so Jehovah your God chastens you.

for whom the Lord loves He chastens, and He scourges every son whom He receives."

As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten; therefore be zealous and repent.
