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:

Hebrews 12:6

ὃν γὰρ ἀγαπᾷ κύριος παιδεύει μαστιγοῖ δὲ πάντα υἱὸν ὃν παραδέχεται

For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.

Proverbs 3:11

מוּסַר יְהוָה בְּנִי אַל-תִּמְאָס וְאַל-תָּקֹץ בְּתוֹכַחְתּֽוֹ׃

My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his correction:

1 Kings 11:14

וַיָּקֶם יְהוָה שָׂטָן לִשְׁלֹמֹה אֵת הֲדַד הָֽאֲדֹמִי מִזֶּרַע הַמֶּלֶךְ הוּא בֶּֽאֱדֽוֹם׃

And the LORD stirred up an adversary unto Solomon, Hadad the Edomite: he was of the king's seed in Edom.

Amos 3:2

רַק אֶתְכֶם יָדַעְתִּי מִכֹּל מִשְׁפְּחוֹת הָאֲדָמָה עַל-כֵּן אֶפְקֹד עֲלֵיכֶם אֵת כָּל-עֲוֹנֹֽתֵיכֶֽם׃

You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.

1 Kings 11:39

וַֽאעַנֶּה אֶת-זֶרַע דָּוִד לְמַעַן זֹאת אַךְ לֹא כָל-הַיָּמִֽים׃

And I will for this afflict the seed of David, but not for ever.

Job 9:34

יָסֵר מֵעָלַי שִׁבְטוֹ וְאֵמָתוֹ אַֽל-תְּבַעֲתַֽנִּי׃

Let him take his rod away from me, and let not his fear terrify me:

1 Kings 11:6

וַיַּעַשׂ שְׁלֹמֹה הָרַע בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה וְלֹא מִלֵּא אַֽחֲרֵי יְהוָה כְּדָוִד אָבִֽיו׃

And Solomon did evil in the sight of the LORD, and went not fully after the LORD, as did David his father.

1 Kings 11:31

וַיֹּאמֶר לְיָֽרָבְעָם קַח-לְךָ עֲשָׂרָה קְרָעִים כִּי כֹה אָמַר יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל הִנְנִי קֹרֵעַ אֶת-הַמַּמְלָכָה מִיַּד שְׁלֹמֹה וְנָֽתַתִּי לְךָ אֵת עֲשָׂרָה הַשְּׁבָטִֽים׃

And he said to Jeroboam, Take thee ten pieces: for thus saith the LORD, the God of Israel, Behold, I will rend the kingdom out of the hand of Solomon, and will give ten tribes to thee:

Exodus 32:34

וְעַתָּה לֵךְ׀ נְחֵה אֶת-הָעָם אֶל אֲשֶׁר-דִּבַּרְתִּי לָךְ הִנֵּה מַלְאָכִי יֵלֵךְ לְפָנֶיךָ וּבְיוֹם פָּקְדִי וּפָֽקַדְתִּי עֲלֵהֶם חַטָּאתָֽם׃

Therefore now go, lead the people unto the place of which I have spoken unto thee: behold, mine Angel shall go before thee: nevertheless in the day when I visit I will visit their sin upon them.

1 Corinthians 11:31

εἰ γὰρ ἑαυτοὺς διεκρίνομεν οὐκ ἂν ἐκρινόμεθα·

For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
