Hebrews 12:7-9
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
7 It is for discipline that you have to endure. God is treating you as sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline? 8 If you are left without discipline, in which all have participated, then you are illegitimate children and not sons. 9 Besides this, we have had earthly fathers to discipline us and we respected them. Shall we not much more be subject to the Father of spirits and live?

New King James Version
7 (A)If[a] you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what (B)son is there whom a father does not chasten? 8 But if you are without chastening, (C)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 (D)the Father of spirits and live?
