- Behold, blessed is the one whom God reproves;
therefore despise not the discipline of the Almighty.
The hope of the righteous brings joy,
but the expectation of the wicked will perish. For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation for all people, training us to renounce ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age.Next verse!With image
