58:012:006 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every
           son whom he receiveth.

58:012:007 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons;
           for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?

58:012:008 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers,
           then are ye bastards, and not sons.

58:012:009 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected
           us, and we gave them reverence:  shall we not much rather be in
           subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?

58:012:010 For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own
           pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of
           his holiness.

58:012:011 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but
           grievous:  nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable
           fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.

58:012:012 Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble
           knees;

58:012:013 And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame
           be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.

58:012:014 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man
           shall see the Lord: 

58:012:015 Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest
           any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby
           many be defiled;

58:012:016 Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who
           for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.

58:012:017 For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited
           the blessing, he was rejected:  for he found no place of
           repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.

58:012:018 For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and
           that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and
           tempest,

58:012:019 And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which
           voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be
           spoken to them any more: 

58:012:020 (For they could not endure that which was commanded, And if so
           much as a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or
           thrust through with a dart: 

58:012:021 And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly
           fear and quake:)

58:012:022 But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the
           living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable
           company of angels,

58:012:023 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are
           written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the
           spirits of just men made perfect,
