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; don't 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, don't resist him who is evil; 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, don't withhold your coat also.

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

I gave my back to the strikers, and my cheeks to those who plucked off the hair; I didn't hide my face from shame and spitting.

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