If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? (KJV)
It is for discipline that you endure; God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline? (NASB)

Did you know?
In Roman society an illegitimate son was one who had no inheritance rights. Without enduring discipline (literally, child training), believers are not sons in the sense that they are not like their Father (2:10). Neither do they receive an inheritance or reward (1:14) in the Kingdom.
Radmacher, Earl D. ; Allen, Ronald Barclay ; House, H. Wayne: Nelson's New Illustrated Bible Commentary. Nashville : T. Nelson Publishers, 1999, S. Heb 12:8
