Yet when we are judged by the Lord, we are being disciplined so that we will not be condemned along with the world.

Look how far you have fallen! Turn back to me and do the works you did at first. If you don’t repent, I will come and remove your lampstand from its place among the churches.

My child, don’t reject the Lord’s discipline, and don’t be upset when he corrects you.For the Lord corrects those he loves, just as a father corrects a child in whom he delights.

And have you forgotten the encouraging words God spoke to you as his children? He said,“ My child, don’t make light of the Lord’s discipline, and don’t give up when he corrects you.For the Lord disciplines those he loves, and he punishes each one he accepts as his child.”As you endure this divine discipline, remember that God is treating you as his own children. Who ever heard of a child who is never disciplined by its father?If God doesn’t discipline you as he does all of his children, it means that you are illegitimate and are not really his children at all.Since we respected our earthly fathers who disciplined us, shouldn’t we submit even more to the discipline of the Father of our spirits, and live forever?For our earthly fathers disciplined us for a few years, doing the best they knew how. But God’s discipline is always good for us, so that we might share in his holiness.No discipline is enjoyable while it is happening— it’s painful! But afterward there will be a peaceful harvest of right living for those who are trained in this way.

I have heard Israel saying,‘ You disciplined me severely, like a calf that needs training for the yoke. Turn me again to you and restore me, for you alone are the Lord my God.

“ But consider the joy of those corrected by God! Do not despise the discipline of the Almighty when you sin.

Just see what this godly sorrow produced in you! Such earnestness, such concern to clear yourselves, such indignation, such alarm, such longing to see me, such zeal, and such a readiness to punish wrong. You showed that you have done everything necessary to make things right.

I gave her time to repent, but she does not want to turn away from her immorality.“ Therefore, I will throw her on a bed of suffering, and those who commit adultery with her will suffer greatly unless they repent and turn away from her evil deeds.

So correct me, Lord, but please be gentle. Do not correct me in anger, for I would die.

He gave his life to free us from every kind of sin, to cleanse us, and to make us his very own people, totally committed to doing good deeds.

Say to them,‘ This is the nation whose people will not obey the Lord their God and who refuse to be taught. Truth has vanished from among them; it is no longer heard on their lips.

He punishes the nations— won’t he also punish you? He knows everything— doesn’t he also know what you are doing?

No one can tell it anything; it refuses all correction. It does not trust in the Lord or draw near to its God.

O Lord, don’t rebuke me in your anger or discipline me in your rage.

If you reject discipline, you only harm yourself; but if you listen to correction, you grow in understanding.

“ I have punished your children, but they did not respond to my discipline. You yourselves have killed your prophets as a lion kills its prey.

Never be lazy, but work hard and serve the Lord enthusiastically.

Think about it: Just as a parent disciplines a child, the Lord your God disciplines you for your own good.

Whoever abandons the right path will be severely disciplined; whoever hates correction will die.

I will be his father, and he will be my son. If he sins, I will correct and discipline him with the rod, like any father would do.

Then his disciples remembered this prophecy from the Scriptures:“ Passion for God’s house will consume me.”

Lord, in distress we searched for you. We prayed beneath the burden of your discipline.

Passion for your house has consumed me, and the insults of those who insult you have fallen on me.

A youngster’s heart is filled with foolishness, but physical discipline will drive it far away.

“ Phinehas son of Eleazar and grandson of Aaron the priest has turned my anger away from the Israelites by being as zealous among them as I was. So I stopped destroying all Israel as I had intended to do in my zealous anger.Now tell him that I am making my special covenant of peace with him.In this covenant, I give him and his descendants a permanent right to the priesthood, for in his zeal for me, his God, he purified the people of Israel, making them right with me.”

For I am with you and will save you,” says the Lord.“ I will completely destroy the nations where I have scattered you, but I will not completely destroy you. I will discipline you, but with justice; I cannot let you go unpunished.”

We are ignored, even though we are well known. We live close to death, but we are still alive. We have been beaten, but we have not been killed.

When you discipline us for our sins, you consume like a moth what is precious to us. Each of us is but a breath. Interlude

God blesses those who patiently endure testing and temptation. Afterward they will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.

If someone is eager to do good things for you, that’s all right; but let them do it all the time, not just when I’m with you.
