(E)Then Manasseh knew that the Lord was God.

Hebrews 12:5-11
English Standard Version
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.”
7 It is for discipline that you have to endure. (D)God is treating you as sons. For what son is there whom his father does not discipline? 8 If you are left without discipline, (E)in which all have participated, then you are illegitimate children and not sons. 9 Besides this, we have had earthly fathers who disciplined us and we respected them. Shall we not much more be subject to (F)the Father of spirits (G)and live? 10 For they disciplined us for a short time as it seemed best to them, but he disciplines us for our good, (H)that we may share his holiness. 11 (I)For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields (J)the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.

Hebrews 12:5-11
New International Version
Hebrews 12:5-11
New International Version
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)
7 Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as his children.(D) For what children are not disciplined by their father? 8 If you are not disciplined—and everyone undergoes discipline(E)—then you are not legitimate, not true sons and daughters at all. 9 Moreover, 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(F) and live!(G) 10 They 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.(H) 11 No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace(I) for those who have been trained by it.

Psalm 73:5-28
English Standard Version
5 They are not in trouble as others are;
they are not (A)stricken like the rest of mankind.
6 Therefore pride is (B)their necklace;
violence covers them as (C)a garment.
7 Their (D)eyes swell out through fatness;
their hearts overflow with follies.
8 They scoff and (E)speak with malice;
loftily they threaten oppression.
9 They set their mouths against the heavens,
and their tongue struts through the earth.
10 Therefore his people turn back to them,
and find (F)no fault in them.[a]
11 And they say, (G)“How can God know?
Is there knowledge in the Most High?”
12 Behold, these are the wicked;
always at ease, they (H)increase in riches.
13 All in vain have I (I)kept my heart clean
and (J)washed my hands in innocence.
14 For all the day long I have been (K)stricken
and (L)rebuked (M)every morning.
15 If I had said, “I will speak thus,”
I would have betrayed (N)the generation of your children.
16 But when I thought how to understand this,
it seemed to me (O)a wearisome task,
17 until I went into (P)the sanctuary of God;
then I discerned their (Q)end.
18 Truly you set them in (R)slippery places;
you make them fall to ruin.
19 How they are destroyed (S)in a moment,
swept away utterly by (T)terrors!
20 Like (U)a dream when one awakes,
O Lord, when (V)you rouse yourself, you despise them as phantoms.
21 When my soul was embittered,
when I was pricked in heart,
22 I was (W)brutish and ignorant;
I was like (X)a beast toward you.
23 Nevertheless, I am continually with you;
you (Y)hold my right hand.
24 You (Z)guide me with your counsel,
and afterward you will (AA)receive me to glory.
25 (AB)Whom have I in heaven but you?
And there is nothing on earth that I desire besides you.
26 (AC)My flesh and my heart may fail,
but God is (AD)the strength[b] of my heart and my (AE)portion (AF)forever.
27 For behold, those who are (AG)far from you shall perish;
you put an end to everyone who is (AH)unfaithful to you.
28 But for me it is good to (AI)be near God;
I have made the Lord God my (AJ)refuge,
that I may (AK)tell of all your works.

Psalm 73:5-28
New International Version
5 They are free(A) from common human burdens;
they are not plagued by human ills.
6 Therefore pride(B) is their necklace;(C)
they clothe themselves with violence.(D)
7 From their callous hearts(E) comes iniquity[a];
their evil imaginations have no limits.
8 They scoff, and speak with malice;(F)
with arrogance(G) they threaten oppression.(H)
9 Their mouths lay claim to heaven,
and their tongues take possession of the earth.
10 Therefore their people turn to them
and drink up waters in abundance.[b]
11 They say, “How would God know?
Does the Most High know anything?”
13 Surely in vain(K) I have kept my heart pure
and have washed my hands in innocence.(L)
14 All day long I have been afflicted,(M)
and every morning brings new punishments.
15 If I had spoken out like that,
I would have betrayed your children.
16 When I tried to understand(N) all this,
it troubled me deeply
17 till I entered the sanctuary(O) of God;
then I understood their final destiny.(P)
18 Surely you place them on slippery ground;(Q)
you cast them down to ruin.(R)
19 How suddenly(S) are they destroyed,
completely swept away(T) by terrors!
20 They are like a dream(U) when one awakes;(V)
when you arise, Lord,
you will despise them as fantasies.(W)
21 When my heart was grieved
and my spirit embittered,
22 I was senseless(X) and ignorant;
I was a brute beast(Y) before you.
23 Yet I am always with you;
you hold me by my right hand.(Z)
24 You guide(AA) me with your counsel,(AB)
and afterward you will take me into glory.
25 Whom have I in heaven but you?(AC)
And earth has nothing I desire besides you.(AD)
26 My flesh and my heart(AE) may fail,(AF)
but God is the strength(AG) of my heart
and my portion(AH) forever.
