Proverbs 3:12

For whom Jehovah loves He reproves, just like a father corrects the son he loves dearly. (Hebrews 12:6)

Learn this lesson by heart: Jehovah your God disciplined you like parents discipline their children.

Jehovah has compassion for those who reverence him just as a father has compassion for his children.

He who spares the rod (authority) hates his son, but he who loves him disciplines (instructs) him promptly.

Correct your son, and he will give you rest. Yes, he will give you delight.

I reprove and discipline those whom I love: be zealous therefore, and repent.
