DBP kind of messed the quote up, but his response is correct. The passage I quoted says that a "servant" (by which it means 'slave') will be severely punished. How do you think slaves were "severely punished"? Do you think they got grounded from their video games? Of course not... they were beaten.

"Will be" is not the same as "Should be". You are right about that. It is worse. Not only should slaves be beaten, but you are commanded to beat them... i.e. they will be beaten.
