¹² Blessed is the man whom thou chastenest, O Lord, and teachest him out of thy law;

¹¹ My son, despise not the chastening of the Lord; neither be weary of his correction:

¹⁸ I have surely heard Ephraim bemoaning himself thus; Thou hast chastised me, and I was chastised, as a bullock unaccustomed to the yoke: turn thou me, and I shall be turned; for thou art the Lord my God.
