  • Hebrews 12:5-11
    And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons:
    “ My son, do not despise the chastening of the LORD,
    Nor be discouraged when you are rebuked by Him;
    For whom the LORD loves He chastens,
    And scourges every son whom He receives.' If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not chasten? But if you are without chastening, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate and not sons. Furthermore, we have had human fathers who corrected us, and we paid them respect. Shall we not much more readily be in subjection to the Father of spirits and live? For they indeed for a few days chastened us as seemed best to them, but He for our profit, that we may be partakers of His holiness. Now no chastening seems to be joyful for the present, but painful; nevertheless, afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.

  • Lamentations 2:1-4
    How the Lord has covered the daughter of Zion
    With a cloud in His anger!
    He cast down from heaven to the earth
    The beauty of Israel,
    And did not remember His footstool
    In the day of His anger.
    The Lord has swallowed up and has not pitied
    All the dwelling places of Jacob.
    He has thrown down in His wrath
    The strongholds of the daughter of Judah;
    He has brought them down to the ground;
    He has profaned the kingdom and its princes.
    He has cut off in fierce anger
    Every horn of Israel;
    He has drawn back His right hand
    From before the enemy.
    He has blazed against Jacob like a flaming fire
    Devouring all around.
    Standing like an enemy, He has bent His bow;
    With His right hand, like an adversary,
    He has slain all who were pleasing to His eye;
    On the tent of the daughter of Zion,
    He has poured out His fury like fire.
