^{11 Ref} All chastening seemeth for the present to be not joyous but grievous; yet afterward it yieldeth peaceable fruit unto them that have been exercised thereby, `even the fruit' of righteousness.

^{7 Ref} If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?

^{8 Ref} But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.

^{9 Ref} 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?
