Hebrews 12:8
Douay-Rheims
But if you be without chastisement, whereof all are made partakers, then are you bastards, and not sons.
George Leo Haydock
In these last four verses we may observe as many subjects of consolation under afflictions. God, our Father, is the author of them; the chastisement he inflicts is the proof of his love; it is the sign or mark of our divine adoption; it is a necessary condition of our being adopted.
