11 God who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time
past unto the fathers by the prophets .

12 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son whom he
hath appointed heir of all things by whom also he made the
worlds .

13 Who being the brightness of his glory and the express image
of his person and upholding all things by the word of his power
when he had by himself purged our sins sat down on the right
hand of the Majesty on high .

14 Being made so much better than the angels as he hath by
inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they .

15 For unto which of the angels said he at any time Thou art
my Son this day have I begotten thee And again I will be to him
a Father and he shall be to me a Son .

16 And again when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the
world he saith And let all the angels of God worship him .

17 And of the angels he saith Who maketh his angels spirits and
his ministers a flame of fire .

18 But unto the Son he saith Thy throne O God is for ever and
ever a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom .

19 Thou hast loved righteousness and hated iniquity therefore
God even thy God hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness
above thy fellows .

110 And Thou Lord in the beginning hast laid the foundation of
the earth and the heavens are the works of thine hands .

111 They shall perish but thou remainest and they all shall wax
old as doth a garment .

112 And as a vesture shalt thou fold them up and they shall be
changed but thou art the same and thy years shall not fail .

113 But to which of the angels said he at any time Sit on my
right hand until I make thine enemies thy footstool .

114 Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister
for them who shall be heirs of salvation .

* 21 Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the
things which we have heard lest at any time we should let them
slip .

22 For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast and every
transgression and disobedience received a just recompence of
reward .

23 How shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation which
at the first began to be spoken by the Lord and was confirmed
unto us by them that heard him .

24 God also bearing them witness both with signs and wonders
and with divers miracles and gifts of the Holy Ghost according
to his own will .

25 For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection the world
to come whereof we speak .

26 But one in a certain place testified saying What is man that
thou art mindful of him or the son of man that thou visitest him
.

27 Thou madest him a little lower than the angels thou
crownedst him with glory and honour and didst set him over the
works of thy hands .

28 Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet For in
that he put all in subjection under him he left nothing that is
not put under him But now we see not yet all things put under
him .

29 But we see Jesus who was made a little lower than the angels
for the suffering of death crowned with glory and honour that he
by the grace of God should taste death for every man .

210 For it became him for whom are all things and by whom are
all things in bringing many sons unto glory to make the captain
of their salvation perfect through sufferings .

211 For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified
are all of one for which cause he is not ashamed to call them
brethren .

212 Saying I will declare thy name unto my brethren in the
midst of the church will I sing praise unto thee .

213 And again I will put my trust in him And again Behold I and
the children which God hath given me .

214 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and
blood he also himself likewise took part of the same that
through death he might destroy him that had the power of death
that is the devil .

215 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their
lifetime subject to bondage .

216 For verily he took not on him the nature of angels but he
took on him the seed of Abraham .

217 Wherefore in all things it behoved him to be made like unto
his brethren that he might be a merciful and faithful high
priest in things pertaining to God to make reconciliation for
the sins of the people .

218 For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted he is
able to succour them that are tempted .

* 31 Wherefore holy brethren partakers of the heavenly calling
consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession Christ
Jesus .

32 Who was faithful to him that appointed him as also Moses was
faithful in all his house .

33 For this man was counted worthy of more glory than Moses
inasmuch as he who hath builded the house hath more honour than
the house .

34 For every house is builded by some man but he that built all
things is God .

35 And Moses verily was faithful in all his house as a servant
for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken after .

36 But Christ as a son over his own house whose house are we if
we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm
unto the end .

37 Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith To day if ye will hear
his voice .

38 Harden not your hearts as in the provocation in the day of
temptation in the wilderness .

39 When your fathers tempted me proved me and saw my works
forty years .

310 Wherefore I was grieved with that generation and said They
do alway err in their heart and they have not known my ways .

311 So I sware in my wrath They shall not enter into my rest) .

312 Take heed brethren lest there be in any of you an evil
heart of unbelief in departing from the living God .

313 But exhort one another daily while it is called To day lest
any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin .

314 For we are made partakers of Christ if we hold the
beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end .

315 While it is said To day if ye will hear his voice harden
not your hearts as in the provocation .

316 For some when they had heard did provoke howbeit not all
that came out of Egypt by Moses .

317 But with whom was he grieved forty years was it not with
them that had sinned whose carcases fell in the wilderness .

318 And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his
rest but to them that believed not .

319 So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief .

* 41 Let us therefore fear lest a promise being left us of
entering into his rest any of you should seem to come short of
it .

42 For unto us was the gospel preached as well as unto them but
the word preached did not profit them not being mixed with faith
in them that heard it .

43 For we which have believed do enter into rest as he said As
I have sworn in my wrath if they shall enter into my rest
although the works were finished from the foundation of the
world .

44 For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this
wise And God did rest the seventh day from all his works .

45 And in this place again If they shall enter into my rest .

46 Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein
and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of
unbelief .

47 Again he limiteth a certain day saying in David To day after
so long a time as it is said To day if ye will hear his voice
harden not your hearts .

48 For if Jesus had given them rest then would he not afterward
have spoken of another day .

49 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God .

410 For he that is entered into his rest he also hath ceased
from his own works as God did from his .

411 Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest lest any
man fall after the same example of unbelief .

412 For the word of God is quick and powerful and sharper than
any twoedged sword piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul
and spirit and of the joints and marrow and is a discerner of
the thoughts and intents of the heart .

413 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his
sight but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him
with whom we have to do .

414 Seeing then that we have a great high priest that is passed
into the heavens Jesus the Son of God let us hold fast our
profession .

415 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with
the feeling of our infirmities but was in all points tempted
like as we are yet without sin .

416 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace that
we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need .

* 51 For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for
men in things pertaining to God that he may offer both gifts and
sacrifices for sins .

52 Who can have compassion on the ignorant and on them that are
out of the way for that he himself also is compassed with
infirmity .

53 And by reason hereof he ought as for the people so also for
himself to offer for sins .

54 And no man taketh this honour unto himself but he that is
called of God as was Aaron .

55 So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high
priest but he that said unto him Thou art my Son to day have I
begotten thee .

56 As he saith also in another place Thou art a priest for ever
after the order of Melchisedec .

57 Who in the days of his flesh when he had offered up prayers
and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was
able to save him from death and was heard in that he feared .

58 Though he were a Son yet learned he obedience by the things
which he suffered .

59 And being made perfect he became the author of eternal
salvation unto all them that obey him .

510 Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec
.

511 Of whom we have many things to say and hard to be uttered
seeing ye are dull of hearing .

512 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers ye have need
that one teach you again which be the first principles of the
oracles of God and are become such as have need of milk and not
of strong meat .

513 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of
righteousness for he is a babe .

514 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age even
those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to
discern both good and evil .

* 61 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ
let us go on unto perfection not laying again the foundation of
repentance from dead works and of faith toward God .

62 Of the doctrine of baptisms and of laying on of hands and of
resurrection of the dead and of eternal judgment .

63 And this will we do if God permit .

64 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened and
have tasted of the heavenly gift and were made partakers of the
Holy Ghost .

65 And have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the
world to come .

66 If they shall fall away to renew them again unto repentance
seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh and put
him to an open shame .

67 For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft
upon it and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is
dressed receiveth blessing from God .

68 But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected and is
nigh unto cursing whose end is to be burned .

69 But beloved we are persuaded better things of you and things
that accompany salvation though we thus speak .

610 For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour
of love which ye have shewed toward his name in that ye have
ministered to the saints and do minister .

611 And we desire that every one of you do shew the same
diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end .

612 That ye be not slothful but followers of them who through
faith and patience inherit the promises .

613 For when God made promise to Abraham because he could swear
by no greater he sware by himself .

614 Saying Surely blessing I will bless thee and multiplying I
will multiply thee .

615 And so after he had patiently endured he obtained the
promise .

616 For men verily swear by the greater and an oath for
confirmation is to them an end of all strife .

617 Wherein God willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs
of promise the immutability of his counsel confirmed it by an
oath .

618 That by two immutable things in which it was impossible for
God to lie we might have a strong consolation who have fled for
refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us .

619 Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul both sure and
stedfast and which entereth into that within the veil .

620 Whither the forerunner is for us entered even Jesus made an
high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec .

* 71 For this Melchisedec king of Salem priest of the most high
God who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings
and blessed him .

72 To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all first being by
interpretation King of righteousness and after that also King of
Salem which is King of peace .

73 Without father without mother without descent having neither
beginning of days nor end of life but made like unto the Son of
God abideth a priest continually .

74 Now consider how great this man was unto whom even the
patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils .

75 And verily they that are of the sons of Levi who receive the
office of the priesthood have a commandment to take tithes of
the people according to the law that is of their brethren though
they come out of the loins of Abraham .

76 But he whose descent is not counted from them received
tithes of Abraham and blessed him that had the promises .

77 And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the
better .

78 And here men that die receive tithes but there he receiveth
them of whom it is witnessed that he liveth .

79 And as I may so say Levi also who receiveth tithes payed
tithes in Abraham .

710 For he was yet in the loins of his father when Melchisedec
met him .

711 If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood
(for under it the people received the law) what further need was
there that another priest should rise after the order of
Melchisedec and not be called after the order of Aaron .

712 For the priesthood being changed there is made of necessity
a change also of the law .

713 For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to
another tribe of which no man gave attendance at the altar .

714 For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda of which
tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood .

715 And it is yet far more evident for that after the
similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest .

716 Who is made not after the law of a carnal commandment but
after the power of an endless life .

717 For he testifieth Thou art a priest for ever after the
order of Melchisedec .

718 For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going
before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof .

719 For the law made nothing perfect but the bringing in of a
better hope did by the which we draw nigh unto God .

720 And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest .

721 (For those priests were made without an oath but this with
an oath by him that said unto him The Lord sware and will not
repent Thou art a priest for ever after the order of
Melchisedec) .

722 By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament .

723 And they truly were many priests because they were not
suffered to continue by reason of death .

724 But this man because he continueth ever hath an
unchangeable priesthood .

725 Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost
that come unto God by him seeing he ever liveth to make
intercession for them .

726 For such an high priest became us who is holy harmless
undefiled separate from sinners and made higher than the heavens
.

727 Who needeth not daily as those high priests to offer up
sacrifice first for his own sins and then for the people's for
this he did once when he offered up himself .

728 For the law maketh men high priests which have infirmity
but the word of the oath which was since the law maketh the Son
who is consecrated for evermore .

* 81 Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum We
have such an high priest who is set on the right hand of the
throne of the Majesty in the heavens .

82 A minister of the sanctuary and of the true tabernacle which
the Lord pitched and not man .

83 For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and
sacrifices wherefore it is of necessity that this man have
somewhat also to offer .

84 For if he were on earth he should not be a priest seeing
that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law .

85 Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things as
Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the
tabernacle for See saith he that thou make all things according
to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount .

86 But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry by how
much also he is the mediator of a better covenant which was
established upon better promises .

87 For if that first covenant had been faultless then should no
place have been sought for the second .

88 For finding fault with them he saith Behold the days come
saith the Lord when I will make a new covenant with the house of
Israel and with the house of Judah .

89 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers
in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the
land of Egypt because they continued not in my covenant and I
regarded them not saith the Lord .

810 For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of
Israel after those days saith the Lord I will put my laws into
their mind and write them in their hearts and I will be to them
a God and they shall be to me a people .

811 And they shall not teach every man his neighbour and every
man his brother saying Know the Lord for all shall know me from
the least to the greatest .

812 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness and their
sins and their iniquities will I remember no more .

813 In that he saith A new covenant he hath made the first old
Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away .

* 91 Then verily the first covenant had also ordinances of
divine service and a worldly sanctuary .

92 For there was a tabernacle made the first wherein was the
candlestick and the table and the shewbread which is called the
sanctuary .

93 And after the second veil the tabernacle which is called the
Holiest of all .

94 Which had the golden censer and the ark of the covenant
overlaid round about with gold wherein was the golden pot that
had manna and Aaron's rod that budded and the tables of the
covenant .

95 And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercyseat
of which we cannot now speak particularly .

96 Now when these things were thus ordained the priests went
always into the first tabernacle accomplishing the service of
God .

97 But into the second went the high priest alone once every
year not without blood which he offered for himself and for the
errors of the people .

98 The Holy Ghost this signifying that the way into the holiest
of all was not yet made manifest while as the first tabernacle
was yet standing .

99 Which was a figure for the time then present in which were
offered both gifts and sacrifices that could not make him that
did the service perfect as pertaining to the conscience .

910 Which stood only in meats and drinks and divers washings
and carnal ordinances imposed on them until the time of
reformation .

911 But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come
by a greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands
that is to say not of this building .

912 Neither by the blood of goats and calves but by his own
blood he entered in once into the holy place having obtained
eternal redemption for us .

913 For if the blood of bulls and of goats and the ashes of an
heifer sprinkling the unclean sanctifieth to the purifying of
the flesh .

914 How much more shall the blood of Christ who through the
eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God purge your
conscience from dead works to serve the living God .

915 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament
that by means of death for the redemption of the transgressions
that were under the first testament they which are called might
receive the promise of eternal inheritance .

916 For where a testament is there must also of necessity be
the death of the testator .

917 For a testament is of force after men are dead otherwise it
is of no strength at all while the testator liveth .

918 Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without
blood .

919 For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people
according to the law he took the blood of calves and of goats
with water and scarlet wool and hyssop and sprinkled both the
book and all the people .

920 Saying This is the blood of the testament which God hath
enjoined unto you .

921 Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle and
all the vessels of the ministry .

922 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood and
without shedding of blood is no remission .

923 It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in
the heavens should be purified with these but the heavenly
things themselves with better sacrifices than these .

924 For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with
hands which are the figures of the true but into heaven itself
now to appear in the presence of God for us .

925 Nor yet that he should offer himself often as the high
priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of
others .

926 For then must he often have suffered since the foundation
of the world but now once in the end of the world hath he
appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself .

927 And as it is appointed unto men once to die but after this
the judgment .

928 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many and
unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time
without sin unto salvation .

* 101 For the law having a shadow of good things to come and
not the very image of the things can never with those sacrifices
which they offered year by year continually make the comers
thereunto perfect .

102 For then would they not have ceased to be offered because
that the worshippers once purged should have had no more
conscience of sins .

103 But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made
of sins every year .

104 For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats
should take away sins .

105 Wherefore when he cometh into the world he saith Sacrifice
and offering thou wouldest not but a body hast thou prepared me .

106 In burntofferings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no
pleasure .

107 Then said I Lo I come (in the volume of the book it is
written of me) to do thy will O God .

108 Above when he said Sacrifice and offering and burnt
offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not neither hadst
pleasure therein which are offered by the law .

109 Then said he Lo I come to do thy will O God He taketh away
the first that he may establish the second .

1010 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering
of the body of Jesus Christ once for all .

1011 And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering
oftentimes the same sacrifices which can never take away sins .

1012 But this man after he had offered one sacrifice for sins
for ever sat down on the right hand of God .

1013 From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his
footstool .

1014 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that
are sanctified .

1015 Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us for after
that he had said before .

1016 This is the covenant that I will make with them after
those days saith the Lord I will put my laws into their hearts
and in their minds will I write them .

1017 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more .

1018 Now where remission of these is there is no more offering
for sin .

1019 Having therefore brethren boldness to enter into the
holiest by the blood of Jesus .

1020 By a new and living way which he hath consecrated for us
through the veil that is to say his flesh .

1021 And having an high priest over the house of God .

1022 Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of
faith having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and
our bodies washed with pure water .

1023 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without
wavering (for he is faithful that promised) .

1024 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and
to good works .

1025 Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together as the
manner of some is but exhorting one another and so much the more
as ye see the day approaching .

1026 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the
knowledge of the truth there remaineth no more sacrifice for
sins .

1027 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery
indignation which shall devour the adversaries .

1028 He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two
or three witnesses .

1029 Of how much sorer punishment suppose ye shall he be
thought worthy who hath trodden under foot the Son of God and
hath counted the blood of the covenant wherewith he was
sanctified an unholy thing and hath done despite unto the Spirit
of grace .

1030 For we know him that hath said Vengeance belongeth unto me
I will recompense saith the Lord And again The Lord shall judge
his people .

1031 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living
God .

1032 But call to remembrance the former days in which after ye
were illuminated ye endured a great fight of afflictions .

1033 Partly whilst ye were made a gazingstock both by
reproaches and afflictions and partly whilst ye became
companions of them that were so used .

1034 For ye had compassion of me in my bonds and took joyfully
the spoiling of your goods knowing in yourselves that ye have in
heaven a better and an enduring substance .

1035 Cast not away therefore your confidence which hath great
recompence of reward .

1036 For ye have need of patience that after ye have done the
will of God ye might receive the promise .

1037 For yet a little while and he that shall come will come
and will not tarry .

1038 Now the just shall live by faith but if any man draw back
my soul shall have no pleasure in him .

1039 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition but of
them that believe to the saving of the soul .

* 111 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for the
evidence of things not seen .

112 For by it the elders obtained a good report .

113 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by
the word of God so that things which are seen were not made of
things which do appear .

114 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice
than Cain by which he obtained witness that he was righteous God
testifying of his gifts and by it he being dead yet speaketh .

115 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death
and was not found because God had translated him for before his
translation he had this testimony that he pleased God .

116 But without faith it is impossible to please him for he
that cometh to God must believe that he is and that he is a
rewarder of them that diligently seek him .

117 By faith Noah being warned of God of things not seen as yet
moved with fear prepared an ark to the saving of his house by
the which he condemned the world and became heir of the
righteousness which is by faith .

118 By faith Abraham when he was called to go out into a place
which he should after receive for an inheritance obeyed and he
went out not knowing whither he went .

119 By faith he sojourned in the land of promise as in a
strange country dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob the
heirs with him of the same promise .

1110 For he looked for a city which hath foundations whose
builder and maker is God .

1111 Through faith also Sara herself received strength to
conceive seed and was delivered of a child when she was past age
because she judged him faithful who had promised .

1112 Therefore sprang there even of one and him as good as dead
so many as the stars of the sky in multitude and as the sand
which is by the sea shore innumerable .

1113 These all died in faith not having received the promises
but having seen them afar off and were persuaded of them and
embraced them and confessed that they were strangers and
pilgrims on the earth .

1114 For they that say such things declare plainly that they
seek a country .

1115 And truly if they had been mindful of that country from
whence they came out they might have had opportunity to have
returned .

1116 But now they desire a better country that is an heavenly
wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God for he hath
prepared for them a city .

1117 By faith Abraham when he was tried offered up Isaac and he
that had received the promises offered up his only begotten son .

1118 Of whom it was said That in Isaac shall thy seed be called
.

1119 Accounting that God was able to raise him up even from the
dead from whence also he received him in a figure .

1120 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to
come .

1121 By faith Jacob when he was a dying blessed both the sons
of Joseph and worshipped leaning upon the top of his staff .

1122 By faith Joseph when he died made mention of the departing
of the children of Israel and gave commandment concerning his
bones .

1123 By faith Moses when he was born was hid three months of
his parents because they saw he was a proper child and they were
not afraid of the king's commandment .

1124 By faith Moses when he was come to years refused to be
called the son of Pharaoh's daughter .

1125 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of
God than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season .

1126 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the
treasures in Egypt for he had respect unto the recompence of the
reward .

1127 By faith he forsook Egypt not fearing the wrath of the
king for he endured as seeing him who is invisible .

1128 Through faith he kept the passover and the sprinkling of
blood lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them .

1129 By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land
which the Egyptians assaying to do were drowned .

1130 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they were
compassed about seven days .

1131 By faith the harlot Rahab perished not with them that
believed not when she had received the spies with peace .

1132 And what shall I more say for the time would fail me to
tell of Gedeon and of Barak and of Samson and of Jephthae of
David also and Samuel and of the prophets .

1133 Who through faith subdued kingdoms wrought righteousness
obtained promises stopped the mouths of lions .

1134 Quenched the violence of fire escaped the edge of the
sword out of weakness were made strong waxed valiant in fight
turned to flight the armies of the aliens .

1135 Women received their dead raised to life again and others
were tortured not accepting deliverance that they might obtain a
better resurrection .

1136 And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings yea
moreover of bonds and imprisonment .

1137 They were stoned they were sawn asunder were tempted were
slain with the sword they wandered about in sheepskins and
goatskins being destitute afflicted tormented .

1138 (Of whom the world was not worthy) they wandered in
deserts and in mountains and in dens and caves of the earth .

1139 And these all having obtained a good report through faith
received not the promise .

1140 God having provided some better thing for us that they
without us should not be made perfect .

* 121 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so
great a cloud of witnesses let us lay aside every weight and the
sin which doth so easily beset us and let us run with patience
the race that is set before us .

122 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith who
for the joy that was set before him endured the cross despising
the shame and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God
.

123 For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners
against himself lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds .

124 Ye have not yet resisted unto blood striving against sin .

125 And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto
you as unto children My son despise not thou the chastening of
the Lord nor faint when thou art rebuked of him .

126 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth and scourgeth every
son whom he receiveth .

127 If ye endure chastening God dealeth with you as with sons
for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not .

128 But if ye be without chastisement whereof all are partakers
then are ye bastards and not sons .

129 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which
corrected us and we gave them reverence shall we not much rather
be in subjection unto the Father of spirits and live .

1210 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 .

1211 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous but
grievous nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit
of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby .

1212 Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down and the feeble
knees .

1213 And make straight paths for your feet lest that which is
lame be turned out of the way but let it rather be healed .

1214 Follow peace with all men and holiness without which no
man shall see the Lord .

1215 Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God
lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you and thereby
many be defiled .

1216 Lest there be any fornicator or profane person as Esau who
for one morsel of meat sold his birthright .

1217 For ye know how that afterward when he would have
inherited the blessing he was rejected for he found no place of
repentance though he sought it carefully with tears .

1218 For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched
and that burned with fire nor unto blackness and darkness and
tempest .

1219 And the sound of a trumpet and the voice of words which
voice they that heard intreated that the word should not be
spoken to them any more .

1220 (For they could not endure that which was commanded And if
so much as a beast touch the mountain it shall be stoned or
thrust through with a dart .

1221 And so terrible was the sight that Moses said I
exceedingly fear and quake) .

1222 But ye are come unto mount Sion and unto the city of the
living God the heavenly Jerusalem and to an innumerable company
of angels .

1223 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn which
are written in heaven and to God the Judge of all and to the
spirits of just men made perfect .

1224 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant and to the
blood of sprinkling that speaketh better things than that of
Abel .

1225 See that ye refuse not him that speaketh For if they
escaped not who refused him that spake on earth much more shall
not we escape if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven
.

1226 Whose voice then shook the earth but now he hath promised
saying Yet once more I shake not the earth only but also heaven .

1227 And this word Yet once more signifieth the removing of
those things that are shaken as of things that are made that
those things which cannot be shaken may remain .

1228 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved let
us have grace whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence
and godly fear .

1229 For our God is a consuming fire .

* 131 Let brotherly love continue .

132 Be not forgetful to entertain strangers for thereby some
have entertained angels unawares .

133 Remember them that are in bonds as bound with them and them
which suffer adversity as being yourselves also in the body .

134 Marriage is honourable in all and the bed undefiled but
whoremongers and adulterers God will judge .

135 Let your conversation be without covetousness and be
content with such things as ye have for he hath said I will
never leave thee nor forsake thee .

136 So that we may boldly say The Lord is my helper and I will
not fear what man shall do unto me .

137 Remember them which have the rule over you who have spoken
unto you the word of God whose faith follow considering the end
of their conversation .

138 Jesus Christ the same yesterday and to day and for ever .

139 Be not carried about with divers and strange doctrines For
it is a good thing that the heart be established with grace not
with meats which have not profited them that have been occupied
therein .

1310 We have an altar whereof they have no right to eat which
serve the tabernacle .

1311 For the bodies of those beasts whose blood is brought into
the sanctuary by the high priest for sin are burned without the
camp .

1312 Wherefore Jesus also that he might sanctify the people
with his own blood suffered without the gate .

1313 Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp
bearing his reproach .

1314 For here have we no continuing city but we seek one to
come .

1315 By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to
God continually that is the fruit of our lips giving thanks to
his name .

1316 But to do good and to communicate forget not for with such
sacrifices God is well pleased .

1317 Obey them that have the rule over you and submit
yourselves for they watch for your souls as they that must give
account that they may do it with joy and not with grief for that
is unprofitable for you .

1318 Pray for us for we trust we have a good conscience in all
things willing to live honestly .

1319 But I beseech you the rather to do this that I may be
restored to you the sooner .

1320 Now the God of peace that brought again from the dead our
Lord Jesus that great shepherd of the sheep through the blood of
the everlasting covenant .

1321 Make you perfect in every good work to do his will working
in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight through Jesus
Christ to whom be glory for ever and ever Amen .

1322 And I beseech you brethren suffer the word of exhortation
for I have written a letter unto you in few words .

1323 Know ye that our brother Timothy is set at liberty with
whom if he come shortly I will see you .

1324 Salute all them that have the rule over you and all the
saints They of Italy salute you .

1325 Grace be with you all Amen .
