Hebrews 12:5-6
New Catholic Bible

God Is Treating You as His Children.[a] 5 You have forgotten the exhortation that addresses you as children:

“My son, do not scorn the discipline of the Lord
    or lose heart when you are punished by him.
6 For the Lord disciplines those whom he loves,
    and he chastises every son whom he acknowledges.”

5 And have you completely forgotten this word of encouragement that addresses you as a father addresses his son? It says,

“My son, do not make light of the Lord’s discipline,
    and do not lose heart(A) when he rebukes you,
6 because the Lord disciplines the one he loves,(B)
    and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son.”[a](C)
