⁵ And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons:

^7 (C)If^[b] you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what ^(D)son is there whom a father does not chasten? ⁸ But if you are without chastening, ^(E)of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate and not sons. ⁹ Furthermore, we have had human fathers who corrected us, and we paid them respect. Shall we not much more readily be in subjection to ^(F)the Father of spirits and live? ¹⁰ For they indeed for a few days chastened us as seemed best to them, but He for our profit, ^(G)that we may be partakers of His holiness. ¹¹ Now no ^[c]chastening seems to be joyful for the present, but painful; nevertheless, afterward it yields ^(H)the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.

⁵ Then ^(A)He who sat on the throne said, ^(B)“Behold, I make all things new.” And He said ^[a]to me, “Write, for ^(C)these words are true and faithful.”

⁶ And He said to me, ^(D)“It^[b] is done! ^(E)I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. ^(F)I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts. ⁷ He who overcomes ^[c]shall inherit all things, and ^(G)I will be his God and he shall be My son. ^8 (H)But the cowardly, ^[d]unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in ^(I)the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”
