Hebrews 12:4-6
New American Standard Bible
A 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 Lord,
Nor (D)faint when you are punished by Him;
6 (E)For (F)whom the Lord loves He disciplines,
And He punishes every son whom He accepts.”

Hebrews 12:4-6
English Standard Version
4 In your struggle against sin you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood. 5 And have you forgotten the exhortation that addresses you as sons?
(A)“My son, (B)do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord,
nor be weary when reproved by him.
6 For (C)the Lord disciplines the one he loves,
and chastises every son whom he receives.”
