8 Bible Verses about Accepting Beatings

Let the righteous strike me, it is kindness; let him reprove me, it is like oil on the head; do not let my head refuse it; Yet my prayer is always against evil deeds.

For you bear with a man, if he brings you into bondage, if he devours you, if he takes you captive, if he exalts himself, if he strikes you on the face.

For what glory is it if, when you sin, you patiently endure beating? But if, when you do well, you patiently endure suffering, this is commendable with God.

But I tell you, do not contend with him who wrongs you; but whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also.

To him who strikes you on the cheek, offer also the other; and from him who takes away your cloak, do not withhold your coat also.

Let him give his cheek to him who strikes him; let him be filled with insults.

I gave my back to those who strike, and my cheeks to those who tore out my beard; I did not cover my face from insults and spitting.

"They hit me, and I was not hurt. They beat me, and I do not feel it. When will I wake up? I can do it again. I can find another."
