| 7 | If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? | Endure suffering as discipline; God is treating you as sons. For what son is not disciplined by his father? | It is for chastening that ye endure; God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is there whom his father chasteneth not? |

About Hebrews 12"Seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses," the readers are to lay aside every weight and sin and "run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith." They must not despise the Lord's chastening, "For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth," and though it is grievous now, it later "yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness." They are to "Follow peace with all men, and holiness," for they have not come to the mount that burned with fire but "unto mount Sion... the heavenly Jerusalem," and "to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant," so let them serve God "with reverence and godly fear: For our God is a consuming fire."
