23 Bible Verses about Discipline

From a party-man, after a first and second admonition, excuse thyself;

Of whom are Hymenaeus and Alexander; whom I have delivered unto Satan, that they may be taught by discipline not to be defaming.

To deliver such a one as this, unto Satan, for the destruction of the flesh, - that, the spirit, may be saved in the day of the Lord.

I have said beforehand, and do say beforehand, - as present the second time, although now absent, unto them who before sinned, and unto all the rest, - that, if I come again, I will not spare.

Correct thy son, because there is hope, yet, not so as to slay him, let thy passion be excited.

He that withholdeth his rod, hateth his son, - but, he that loveth him, carefully correcteth him.

And Yahweh said unto Joshua - Get thee up! wherefore is it that thou art lying upon thy face? Israel hath sinned, yea moreover they have transgressed my covenant which I commanded them, - yea moreover they have taken of what was devoted, yea moreover they have stolen, yea moreover they have dissembled, yea moreover they have put it among their own goods. Therefore cannot the sons of Israel stand before their enemies, their back, do they turn before their enemies, because they have become devoted, - I will no more be with you, except ye destroy the devoted thing out of your midst. read more.
Up! hallow the people, and thou shalt say, Hallow yourselves by to-morrow, - for, Thus, saith Yahweh, God of Israel: A devoted thing, is in the midst of thee O Israel, Thou canst not stand before thine enemies, until ye have put away the devoted thing out of your midst. Therefore shall ye be brought near in the morning by your tribes, - and it shall be that - the tribe which Yahweh shall seize, shall come near, by families, and the family which Yahweh shall seize, shall come near, by households, and the household which Yahweh shall seize, shall come near, man by man; and it shall be, that - He that is seized with the devoted thing, shall be burned with fire, he and all that he hath, - because he hath transgressed the covenant of Yahweh, and because he hath wrought impiety in Israel. So Joshua rose up early in the morning, and brought Israel near by their tribes, - and, the tribe of Judah, was seized; and he brought near the family of Judah, and, the family of the Zarhites, was seized, - and he brought near the family of the Zarhites, man by man, and, Zabdi, was seized; and he brought near his household, man by man, - and, Achan son of Carmi son of Zabdi son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was seized. And Joshua said unto Achan - My son give I pray thee glory unto Yahweh God of Israel and make to him confession, - and tell me I pray thee what thou hast done, do not hide it from me. And Achan answered Joshua and said, - Of a truth, I, have sinned against Yahweh God of Israel, and, thus and thus, have I done: When I saw among the spoil a certain goodly mantle of Babylonia and two hundred shekels of silver and a certain wedge of gold - fifty shekels the weight thereof, then I coveted them, then I took them, - and, there they are, hid in the earth, in the midst of my tent, and the silver under it. So Joshua sent messengers, and they ran unto the tent, - and, there it was, hid in his tent, and, the silver, under it. And they took them out of the midst of the tent, and brought them in unto Joshua, and unto all the sons of Israel, - and poured them out before Yahweh. And Joshua, and all Israel with him, took Achan - son of Zerah, and the silver and the mantle and the wedge of gold, and his sons and his daughters, and his oxen and his asses and his sheep and his tent, and all that he had, and brought them up the valley of Achor. And Joshua said - Why hast thou troubled us? Yahweh, will trouble thee, this day. And all Israel stoned him with stones, and burned them up with fire, and covered them with stones; yea they raised over him a great heap of stones which remaineth until this day. And Yahweh turned from the fierceness of his anger, - for which cause, hath the name of that place been called - The Valley of Achor, until this day.

And the sons of Israel said, Who was there that came not up, in the convocation, out of all the tribes of Israel, unto Yahweh? For, the great oath, had been taken, as to any who came not up unto Yahweh at Mizpah, saying - He shall be, put to death. And the sons of Israel grieved for Benjamin, their brother, - and they said, There is cut off, to-day, one tribe out of Israel. What are we to do for them who remain, for wives, - seeing that, we ourselves, have sworn by Yahweh, not to give them of our daughters, for wives? read more.
So they said, What one of the tribes of Israel is there, that hath not come up unto Yahweh at Mizpah? And lo! no man had come into the camp, out of Jabesh-gilead, unto the convocation: When the people were numbered, lo! there was not there a man of the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead. So the assembly sent thither twelve thousand men, of the sons of valour, - and commanded them, saying: - Go and smite the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead, with the edge of the sword, with the women, and the little ones. And, this, is the thing that ye shall do, - Every male, and every woman that hath cohabited with man, shall ye devote to destruction. And they found - of the inhabitants of Jabesh-gilead - four hundred young women, virgins, who had not cohabited with man, - so they brought them into the camp, at Shiloh, which is in the land of Canaan.
