Etheridge(i)
7 Endure, therefore, correction, because Aloha acteth towards you as with children: for who is a son whom his father doth not correct?
8 And if ye be without the correction with which every one is corrected, ye are aliens, and not children.
9 And if (when) the fathers of the flesh have chastised us we have revered them, how much more are we bound to be subject to our spiritual fathers,* that we may live?[* Abothain däruchotho, a very questionable reading.]
10 For they, during a little time, as they willed, chastised us; but Aloha for our advantage, that we might partake of his holiness.
