For I have become all things to all people... Though I am free and belong to no one, I have made myself a slave to everyone... To the Jews I became like a Jew... To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law)... To those not having the law I became like one not having the law (though I am not free from God’s law but am under Christ’s law)... To the weak I became weak... Up to this moment we have become the scum of the earth, the offscouring of all things... (1 Corinthians 9:19-22; 1 Corinthians 4:13)
My son, do not despise the chastening of the LORD; nor be weary of His correction... For whom the LORD loves He corrects, and He scourges every son He receives... For the commandment is a lamp and the teaching is light; and reproofs for discipline are the way of life... (Proverbs 3:11; Hebrews 12:6; Proverbs 6:23)

For the LORD is great and greatly to be praised; He is to be feared above all the others. For all the gods of the nations are idols, but it is the LORD who made the heavens. Splendour and majesty are before Him; strength and beauty fill His sanctuary. Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the nations, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength. Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name; bring an offering and enter His courts. Worship the LORD in the splendour of His holiness; tremble before Him, all the earth. Declare among the nations: “The LORD reigns!” The world is firmly established; it cannot be moved; He will judge the peoples with equity. Let the heavens be glad and the earth rejoice; let the sea resound, and all that fills it. Let the fields exult, and all that is in them. Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy before the LORD, for He is returning —He is returning to judge the earth. He will judge the world in righteousness and the peoples in His faithfulness... (Psalm 96:4-13)
The person who commits adultery lacks understanding. He who does so, destroys his own soul. Wounds and dishonour he will get and his shame will not be wiped away... You have heard that it was said, 'You shall not commit adultery'. But I say to you, that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart... (Proverbs 6:32-33; Matthew 5:27-28)
