12 Blessed is the man whom You (A)instruct, O Lord,And teach out of Your law,
11 (A)My son, do not despise the chastening of the Lord,Nor detest His correction;
12 For whom the Lord loves He corrects,(A)Just as a father the son in whom he delights.
5 And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons:
(A)“My son, do not despise the [a]chastening of the Lord,Nor be discouraged when you are rebuked by Him;
6 For (A)whom the Lord loves He chastens,And scourges every son whom He receives.”
19 (A)As many as I love, I rebuke and (B)chasten.[a] Therefore be [b]zealous and repent.
