NETBible

My child, do not despise discipline from the Lord,¹ and do not loathe² his rebuke.

NET Notes

¹tn Heb “the discipline of the Lord.”

²tn The verb קוּץ (quts) has a two-fold range of meaning: (1) “to feel a loathing; to abhor” and (2) “to feel a sickening dread” (BDB 880 s.v.). The parallelism with “do not despise” suggests the former nuance here. The common response to suffering is to loathe it; however, the righteous understand that it refines one’s moral character and that it is a means to the blessing.
