Hebrews 12:5-8

Mace(i) 5 have you forgot the exhortation which is address'd to you, as to children? "my son, despise not thou the chastning of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him. 6 for whom the Lord loveth, he chastises, and scourgeth every son whom he receives." 7 if you are to endure chastisement, God treats you as his children: for where's the son whom his father does not chastise? 8 but if you were exempted from that discipline which others are subject to, then are you bastards, and not sons.
