³ For consider him that endured such contradiction from sinners against himself, lest ye be weary and faint in your minds. ⁴ Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin. ⁵ And yet ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh to you as to sons, 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 chastneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. ⁷ If ye endure chastning, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he, whom his father chastneth not? ⁸ But if ye are without chastning, of which all are partakers, then are ye bastards and not sons. ⁹ Moreover we have had fathers of our flesh who corrected us, and we reverenced them: Shall we not much rather be in subjection to the Father of spirits and live? ¹⁰ For they, verily, for a few days chastned us as they thought good: but he for our profit, that we may be partakers of his holiness. ¹¹ Now all chastning for the present is assuredly not joyous, but grievous; yet afterwards it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness to them that are exercised thereby.

⁵ And from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the first begotten from the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth:

¹⁴ And he said to me, These are they who come out of great affliction, and they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. ¹⁵ Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple, and he that sitteth upon the throne shall have his tent over them. ¹⁶ They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat. ¹⁷ For the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will feed them, and will lead them to living fountains of water: and God will wipe away all tears from their eyes.
