Psalm 94:12

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O LORD, and teachest him out of thy law;

Before I was afflicted I went astray,

But now I keep Your word.

“Behold, how happy is the man whom God reproves,
So do not despise the discipline of the Almighty.

My son, do not reject the discipline of the Lord

Or loathe His reproof,

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

and you have forgotten the exhortation which is addressed to you as sons,
“My son, do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord,
Nor

faint when you are reproved by Him;

Then He opens the ears of men,
And seals their instruction,

The voice of the Lord will call to the city—
And it is sound wisdom to fear Your name:
“Hear, O tribe. Who has appointed its time?

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

Who teaches us more than the beasts of the earth
And makes us wiser than the birds of the heavens?’
