Hebrews 12:4-6
Legacy Standard Bible

The Father’s Discipline

4 (A)You have not yet resisted [a](B)to the point of shedding blood in your striving against sin. 5 And you have forgotten the exhortation which is addressed to you as sons,

“(C)My son, do not regard lightly the discipline of the [b]Lord,
Nor (D)faint when you are reproved by Him;
6 (E)For those (F)whom the [c]Lord loves He disciplines,
And He flogs every son whom He receives.”

My son, do not take the Lord’s discipline lightly
or lose heart when you are reproved by him,
6 for the Lord disciplines the one he loves
and punishes every son he receives.[a](A)

Hebrews 12:4-6
New International Version

God Disciplines His Children

4 In your struggle against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood.(A) 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(B) when he rebukes you,
6 because the Lord disciplines the one he loves,(C)
    and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son.”[a](D)
