7 If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons, for what son is he whom the father does not chasten?

8 But if you are without chastisement, of which all are partakers, then you are bastards and not sons.

9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh who corrected [us], and we gave [them] reverence. Shall we not much rather be in subjection to the Father of spirits and live?

10 For truly they chastened [us] for a few days according to their own pleasure, but He for our profit, that [we] might be partakers of His holiness.
