Proverbs 3:12

For whom the Lord loves He reproves,
Even as a father corrects the son in whom he delights.

Thus you are to know in your heart that the Lord your God was disciplining you just as a man disciplines his son.

Just as a father has compassion on his children,
So the Lord has compassion on those who fear Him.

He who withholds his rod hates his son,
But he who loves him disciplines him diligently.

Correct your son, and he will give you comfort;
He will also delight your soul.

Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline; therefore be zealous and repent.
