“The Lord hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto death.”
The LORD has disciplined me severely, but he has not given me over to death. The discipline ('disciplined severely') proves to be correction within relationship, not abandonment ('not given me over to death'). This verse portrays suffering as pedagogical within covenant.
