Proverbs 3:12

The Scriptures 1998

For whom יהוה loves He reproves, As a father the son whom he delights in.

See the chapter Copy

“Thus you shall know in your heart that as a man disciplines his son, so יהוה your Elohim disciplines you,

“As many as I love, I reprove and discipline. So be ardent and repent.

Discipline your son, And he brings you rest and delight to your life.

He who spares his rod hates his son, But he who loves him, seeks him with discipline.

As a father has compassion for his children, So יהוה has compassion for those who fear Him.

for whom יהוה loves, He disciplines, and flogs every son whom He receives.”

Blessed is the man You discipline, O Yah, And instruct out of Your Torah,
