Proverbs 3:12

For whom the LORD loveth, him he chasteneth: and yet delighteth in him even as a father in his own son.

Understand, therefore, in thine heart, that as a man nurtureth his son, even so the LORD thy God nurtureth thee.

Yea, like as a father pitieth his own children, even so is the LORD merciful unto them that fear him.

He that spareth the rod, hateth his son; but whoso loveth him, chastiseth him betimes.

Nurture thy son with correction, and he shall comfort thee; yea, he shall do the good at thine heart.

As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Be fervent therefore and repent.
