Hebrews 12:10

Οἱ μὲν γὰρ πρὸς ὀλίγας ἡμέρας κατὰ τὸ δοκοῦν αὐτοῖς ἐπαίδευον· ὁ δὲ ἐπὶ τὸ συμφέρον, εἰς τὸ μεταλαβεῖν τῆς ἁγιότητος αὐτοῦ.
Oi men gar pros oligas ēmeras kata to dokoyn aytois epaideyon· o de epi to sympheron, eis to metalabein tēs agiotētos aytoy.
King James Version (KJV)

For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.

Modern English

They disciplined us for a little while as they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, in order that we may share in his holiness.
