Deuteronomy 8:5

Thou shalt also consider in thine heart, that, as a man chasteneth his son, [so] the LORD thy God chasteneth thee.

Thou shalt also consider {H3045} in {H5973} thine heart {H3824}, that, as a man {H376} chasteneth {H3256} his son {H1121}, so the LORD {H3068} thy God {H430} chasteneth {H3256} thee.

Think deeply about it: ADONAI was disciplining you, just as a man disciplines his child.

So know in your heart that just as a man disciplines his son, so the LORD your God disciplines you.

And thou shalt consider in thy heart, that, as a man chasteneth his son, so Jehovah thy God chasteneth thee.
