Hebrews 12:7
If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
Connections
יַסֵּר בִּנְךָ כִּי-יֵשׁ תִּקְוָה וְאֶל-הֲמִיתוֹ אַל-תִּשָּׂא נַפְשֶֽׁךָ׃
Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not thy soul spare for his crying.
וְיָֽדַעְתָּ עִם-לְבָבֶךָ כִּי כַּֽאֲשֶׁר יְיַסֵּר אִישׁ אֶת-בְּנוֹ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ מְיַסְּרֶֽךָּ׃
Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that, as a man chasteneth his son, so the LORD thy God chasteneth thee.
חוֹשֵׂךְ שִׁבְטוֹ שׂוֹנֵא בְנוֹ וְאֹהֲבוֹ שִֽׁחֲרוֹ מוּסָֽר׃
He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth him betimes.
שֵׁבֶט וְתוֹכַחַת יִתֵּן חָכְמָה וְנַעַר מְשֻׁלָּח מֵבִישׁ אִמּֽוֹ׃
The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame.
יַסֵּר בִּנְךָ וִֽינִיחֶךָ וְיִתֵּן מַעֲדַנִּים לְנַפְשֶֽׁךָ׃
Correct thy son, and he shall give thee rest; yea, he shall give delight unto thy soul.
אַל-תִּמְנַע מִנַּעַר מוּסָר כִּֽי-תַכֶּנּוּ בַשֵּׁבֶט לֹא יָמֽוּת׃
Withhold not correction from the child: for if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die.
אֲנִי אֶֽהְיֶה-לּוֹ לְאָב וְהוּא יִֽהְיֶה-לִּי לְבֵן אֲשֶׁר בְּהַעֲוֹתוֹ וְהֹֽכַחְתִּיו בְּשֵׁבֶט אֲנָשִׁים וּבְנִגְעֵי בְּנֵי אָדָֽם׃
I will be his father, and he shall be my son. If he commit iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men, and with the stripes of the children of men:
כִּֽי-אֶל-אֵל הֶאָמַר נָשָׂאתִי לֹא אֶחְבֹּֽל׃
Surely it is meet to be said unto God, I have borne chastisement, I will not offend any more:
וְהִגַּדְתִּי לוֹ כִּֽי-שֹׁפֵט אֲנִי אֶת-בֵּיתוֹ עַד-עוֹלָם בַּֽעֲוֹן אֲשֶׁר-יָדַע כִּֽי-מְקַלְלִים לָהֶם בָּנָיו וְלֹא כִהָה בָּֽם׃
For I have told him that I will judge his house for ever for the iniquity which he knoweth; because his sons made themselves vile, and he restrained them not.
וְעַתָּה חַי-יְהוָה אֲשֶׁר הֱכִינַנִי (ויושיביני) וַיּֽוֹשִׁיבַנִי עַל-כִּסֵּא דָּוִד אָבִי וַֽאֲשֶׁר עָֽשָׂה-לִי בַּיִת כַּֽאֲשֶׁר דִּבֵּר כִּי הַיּוֹם יוּמַת אֲדֹֽנִיָּֽהוּ׃
Now therefore, as the LORD liveth, which hath established me, and set me on the throne of David my father, and who hath made me an house, as he promised, Adonijah shall be put to death this day.
וְלֹֽא-עֲצָבוֹ אָבִיו מִיָּמָיו לֵאמֹר מַדּוּעַ כָּכָה עָשִׂיתָ וְגַם-הוּא טֽוֹב-תֹּאַר מְאֹד וְאֹתוֹ יָֽלְדָה אַֽחֲרֵי אַבְשָׁלֽוֹם׃
And his father had not displeased him at any time in saying, Why hast thou done so? and he also was a very goodly man; and his mother bare him after Absalom.
לָמָּה תִבְעֲטוּ בְּזִבְחִי וּבְמִנְחָתִי אֲשֶׁר צִוִּיתִי מָעוֹן וַתְּכַבֵּד אֶת-בָּנֶיךָ מִמֶּנִּי לְהַבְרִֽיאֲכֶם מֵֽרֵאשִׁית כָּל-מִנְחַת יִשְׂרָאֵל לְעַמִּֽי׃
Wherefore kick ye at my sacrifice and at mine offering, which I have commanded in my habitation; and honourest thy sons above me, to make yourselves fat with the chiefest of all the offerings of Israel my people?
אִוֶּלֶת קְשׁוּרָה בְלֶב-נָעַר שֵׁבֶט מוּסָר יַרְחִיקֶנָּה מִמֶּֽנּוּ׃
Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him.
וְזֶה-לְּךָ הָאוֹת אֲשֶׁר יָבֹא אֶל-שְׁנֵי בָנֶיךָ אֶל-חָפְנִי וּפִֽינְחָס בְּיוֹם אֶחָד יָמוּתוּ שְׁנֵיהֶֽם׃
And this shall be a sign unto thee, that shall come upon thy two sons, on Hophni and Phinehas; in one day they shall die both of them.
ἐπιστηρίζοντες τὰς ψυχὰς τῶν μαθητῶν παρακαλοῦντες ἐμμένειν τῇ πίστει καὶ ὅτι διὰ πολλῶν θλίψεων δεῖ ἡμᾶς εἰσελθεῖν εἰς τὴν βασιλείαν τοῦ θεοῦ
Confirming the souls of the disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.
