And you have not kept in mind the word which says to you as to sons, My son, do not make little of the Lord's punishment, and do not give up hope when you are judged by him;
But if punishment does come, it is sent by the Lord, so that we may be safe when the world is judged.
To all those who are dear to me, I give sharp words and punishment: then with all your heart have sorrow for your evil ways.
Pain is sent on him as a punishment, while he is on his bed; there is no end to the trouble in his bones;

He takes away every branch in me which has no fruit, and every branch which has fruit he makes clean, so that it may have more fruit.

He who is the judge of the nations, will he not give men the reward of their acts, even he who gives knowledge to man? The Lord has knowledge of the thoughts of man, for they are only a breath.
The hand of Jah has been hard on me; but he has not given me up to death.
It is for your training that you undergo these things; God is acting to you as a father does to his sons; for what son does not have punishment from his father? But if you have not that punishment of which we all have our part, then you are not true sons, but children of shame. And again, if the fathers of our flesh gave us punishment and had our respect, how much more will we be under the authority of the Father of spirits, and have life? read more.
For they truly gave us punishment for a short time, as it seemed good to them; but he does it for our profit, so that we may become holy as he is.

Knowledge » Those that do not know the lord
See what great love the Father has given us in naming us the children of God; and such we are. For this reason the world does not see who we are, because it did not see who he was.

His feet take him into the net, and he goes walking into the cords. His foot is taken in the net; he comes into its grip. The twisted cord is put secretly in the earth to take him, and the cord is placed in his way. He is overcome by fears on every side, they go after him at every step. His strength is made feeble for need of food, and destruction is waiting for his falling footstep. His skin is wasted by disease, and his body is food for the worst of diseases. He is pulled out of his tent where he was safe, and he is taken away to the king of fears. In his tent will be seen that which is not his, burning stone is dropped on his house. Under the earth his roots are dry, and over it his branch is cut off. His memory is gone from the earth, and in the open country there is no knowledge of his name. He is sent away from the light into the dark; he is forced out of the world. He has no offspring or family among his people, and in his living-place there is no one of his name. At his fate those of the west are shocked, and those of the east are overcome with fear. Truly, these are the houses of the sinner, and this is the place of him who has no knowledge of God.

O Lord, put me right, but with wise purpose; not in your wrath, or you will make me small. Let your wrath be let loose on the nations which have no knowledge of you, and on the families who give no worship to your name: for they have made a meal of Jacob, truly they have made a meal of him and put an end to him and made his fields a waste.
And to you who are troubled, rest with us, when the Lord Jesus comes from heaven with the angels of his power in flames of fire, To give punishment to those who have no knowledge of God, and to those who do not give ear to the good news of our Lord Jesus: Whose reward will be eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of his strength,
