Hebrews 12

King James Version (KJV)

5 Ref And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:

6 Ref For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.

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

American Standard-ASV1901 (ASV)

5 Ref and ye have forgotten the exhortation which reasoneth with you as with sons, My son, regard not lightly the chastening of the Lord, Nor faint when thou art reproved of him;

6 Ref For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, And scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.

7 Ref It is for chastening that ye endure; God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is there whom `his' father chasteneth not?

World English Bible (WEB)

5 Ref and you have forgotten the exhortation which reasons with you as with children, "My son, don't take lightly the chastening of the Lord, Nor faint when you are reproved by him;

6 Ref For whom the Lord loves, he chastens, And scourges every son whom he receives."

7 Ref It is for discipline that you endure. God deals with you as with children, for what son is there whom his father doesn't discipline?
