Hebrews 12:9 DBY

⁷  Ye endure for chastening, God conducts himself towards you as towards sons; for who is the son that the father chastens not?

⁸  But if ye are without chastening, of which all have been made partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.

⁹  Moreover we have had the fathers of our flesh as chasteners, and we reverenced [them]; shall we not much rather be in subjection to the Father of spirits, and live?

¹⁰  For they indeed chastened for a few days, as seemed good to them; but he for profit, in order to the partaking of his holiness.

¹¹  But no chastening at the time seems to be [matter] of joy, but of grief; but afterwards yields [the] peaceful fruit of righteousness to those exercised by it.
