Proverbs 3:11

Tree of Life Version

My son, never despise Adonai’s discipline or dread His correction.

See the chapter Copy

Yet now it has come to you, and you are discouraged; it strikes you, and you are dismayed.

Behold, happy is the one whom God corrects, so do not despise the discipline of Shaddai.

Blessed is the one You discipline, Adonai, and teach him from Your Torah,

If you falter in a day of adversity, your strength is small.

But when we are judged, we are being disciplined by the Lord so that we might not be condemned along with the world.

For this reason, since we have this ministry, just as we received mercy, we do not lose heart.

Now you know in your heart that as a man disciplines his son, so Adonai your God disciplines you.

Consider Him who has endured such hostility by sinners against Himself, so that you may not grow weary in your souls and lose heart.

Those whom I love, I rebuke and discipline. Therefore, be zealous and repent.
