Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth: therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty:
But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.

The LORD’s voice crieth unto the city, and the man of wisdom shall see thy name: hear ye the rod, and who hath appointed it.
