Hebrews 12:7-10

New International Version

⁷Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as his children.^(A) For what children are not disciplined by their father? ⁸If you are not disciplined—and everyone undergoes discipline^(B)—then you are not legitimate, not true sons and daughters at all. ⁹Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of spirits^(C) and live!^(D) ¹⁰They disciplined us for a little while as they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, in order that we may share in his holiness.^(E)
