My child, do not despise discipline from the Lord, and do not loathe his rebuke.

"Therefore, blessed is the man whom God corrects, so do not despise the discipline of the Almighty.

But now the same thing comes to you, and you are discouraged; it strikes you, and you are terrified.

How blessed is the one whom you instruct, O Lord, the one whom you teach from your law,

If you faint in the day of trouble, your strength is small!

Even youths get tired and weary; even strong young men clumsily stumble.

But when we are judged by the Lord, we are disciplined so that we may not be condemned with the world.

Therefore, since we have this ministry, just as God has shown us mercy, we do not become discouraged.

Therefore we do not despair, but even if our physical body is wearing away, our inner person is being renewed day by day.

Think of him who endured such opposition against himself by sinners, so that you may not grow weary in your souls and give up.

And have you forgotten the exhortation addressed to you as sons? "My son, do not scorn the Lord's discipline or give up when he corrects you.

All those I love, I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest and repent!
