Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that, as a man chasteneth his son, so the Lord thy God chasteneth thee.

My son, despise not the chastening of the Lord; neither be weary of his correction: for whom the Lord loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth.

He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.

Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not thy soul spare for his crying.

He who truly loves will chastise well.
