HEB-11 God who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in
time past unto the fathers by the prophets .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-14 Being made so much better than the angels as he hath by
inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they .
HEB-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 .
HEB-16 And again when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the
world he saith And let all the angels of God worship him .
HEB-17 And of the angels he saith Who maketh his angels spirits
and his ministers a flame of fire .
HEB-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 .
HEB-19 Thou hast loved righteousness and hated iniquity
therefore God even thy God hath anointed thee with the oil of
gladness above thy fellows .
HEB-110 And Thou Lord in the beginning hast laid the foundation
of the earth and the heavens are the works of thine hands .
HEB-111 They shall perish but thou remainest and they all shall
wax old as doth a garment .
HEB-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 .
HEB-113 But to which of the angels said he at any time Sit on
my right hand until I make thine enemies thy footstool .
HEB-114 Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to
minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation .
* HEB-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 .
HEB-22 For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast and every
transgression and disobedience received a just recompense of
reward .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-25 For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection the
world to come whereof we speak .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-212 Saying I will declare thy name unto my brethren in the
midst of the church will I sing praise unto thee .
HEB-213 And again I will put my trust in him And again Behold I
and the children which God hath given me .
HEB-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 .
HEB-215 And deliver them who through fear of death were all
their lifetime subject to bondage .
HEB-216 For verily he took not on him the nature of angels but
he took on him the seed of Abraham .
HEB-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 .
HEB-218 For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted he
is able to succour them that are tempted .
* HEB-31 Wherefore holy brethren partakers of the heavenly
calling consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession
Christ Jesus .
HEB-32 Who was faithful to him that appointed him as also Moses
was faithful in all his house .
HEB-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 .
HEB-34 For every house is builded by some man but he that built
all things is God .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-37 Wherefore as the Holy Ghost saith To day if ye will hear
his voice .
HEB-38 Harden not your hearts as in the provocation in the day
of temptation in the wilderness .
HEB-39 When your fathers tempted me proved me and saw my works
forty years .
HEB-310 Wherefore I was grieved with that generation and said
They do alway err in their heart and they have not known my ways
.
HEB-311 So I sware in my wrath They shall not enter into my
rest .
HEB-312 Take heed brethren lest there be in any of you an evil
heart of unbelief in departing from the living God .
HEB-313 But exhort one another daily while it is called To day
lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin .
HEB-314 For we are made partakers of Christ if we hold the
beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end .
HEB-315 While it is said To day if ye will hear his voice
harden not your hearts as in the provocation .
HEB-316 For some when they had heard did provoke howbeit not
all that came out of Egypt by Moses .
HEB-317 But with whom was he grieved forty years was it not
with them that had sinned whose carcases fell in the wilderness .
HEB-318 And to whom sware he that they should not enter into
his rest but to them that believed not .
HEB-319 So we see that they could not enter in because of
unbelief .
* HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-45 And in this place again If they shall enter into my rest
.
HEB-46 Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter
therein and they to whom it was first preached entered not in
because of unbelief .
HEB-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 .
HEB-48 For if Jesus had given them rest then would he not
afterward have spoken of another day .
HEB-49 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God .
HEB-410 For he that is entered into his rest he also hath
ceased from his own works as God did from his .
HEB-411 Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest lest
any man fall after the same example of unbelief .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
* HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-53 And by reason hereof he ought as for the people so also
for himself to offer for sins .
HEB-54 And no man taketh this honour unto himself but he that
is called of God as was Aaron .
HEB-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 .
HEB-56 As he saith also in another place Thou art a priest for
ever after the order of Melchisedec .
HEB-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 .
HEB-58 Though he were a Son yet learned he obedience by the
things which he suffered .
HEB-59 And being made perfect he became the author of eternal
salvation unto all them that obey him .
HEB-510 Called of God an high priest after the order of
Melchisedec .
HEB-511 Of whom we have many things to say and hard to be
uttered seeing ye are dull of hearing .
HEB-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 .
HEB-513 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word
of righteousness for he is a babe .
HEB-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 .
* HEB-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
.
HEB-62 Of the doctrine of baptisms and of laying on of hands
and of resurrection of the dead and of eternal judgment .
HEB-63 And this will we do if God permit .
HEB-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 .
HEB-65 And have tasted the good word of God and the powers of
the world to come .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-68 But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected and
is nigh unto cursing whose end is to be burned .
HEB-69 But beloved we are persuaded better things of you and
things that accompany salvation though we thus speak .
HEB-610 For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and
labour of love which ye have showed toward his name in that ye
have ministered to the saints and do minister .
HEB-611 And we desire that every one of you do show the same
diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end .
HEB-612 That ye be not slothful but followers of them who
through faith and patience inherit the promises .
HEB-613 For when God made promise to Abraham because he could
swear by no greater he sware by himself .
HEB-614 Saying Surely blessing I will bless thee and
multiplying I will multiply thee .
HEB-615 And so after he had patiently endured he obtained the
promise .
HEB-616 For men verily swear by the greater and an oath for
confirmation is to them an end of all strife .
HEB-617 Wherein God willing more abundantly to show unto the
heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel confirmed it by
an oath .
HEB-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 .
HEB-619 Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul both sure
and stedfast and which entereth into that within the veil .
HEB-620 Whither the forerunner is for us entered even Jesus
made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec .
* HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-74 Now consider how great this man was unto whom even the
patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils .
HEB-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 .
HEB-76 But he whose descent is not counted from them received
tithes of Abraham and blessed him that had the promises .
HEB-77 And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the
better .
HEB-78 And here men that die receive tithes but there he
receiveth them of whom it is witnessed that he liveth .
HEB-79 And as I may so say Levi also who receiveth tithes payed
tithes in Abraham .
HEB-710 For he was yet in the loins of his father when
Melchisedec met him .
HEB-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 .
HEB-712 For the priesthood being changed there is made of
necessity a change also of the law .
HEB-713 For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to
another tribe of which no man gave attendance at the altar .
HEB-714 For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda of
which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood .
HEB-715 And it is yet far more evident for that after the
similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest .
HEB-716 Who is made not after the law of a carnal commandment
but after the power of an endless life .
HEB-717 For he testifieth Thou art a priest for ever after the
order of Melchisedec .
HEB-718 For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment
going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof .
HEB-719 For the law made nothing perfect but the bringing in of
a better hope did by the which we draw nigh unto God .
HEB-720 And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest .
HEB-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 .
HEB-722 By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better
testament .
HEB-723 And they truly were many priests because they were not
suffered to continue by reason of death .
HEB-724 But this man because he continueth ever hath an
unchangeable priesthood .
HEB-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 .
HEB-726 For such an high priest became us who is holy harmless
undefiled separate from sinners and made higher than the heavens
.
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
* HEB-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 .
HEB-82 A minister of the sanctuary and of the true tabernacle
which the Lord pitched and not man .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 showed to thee in the mount .
HEB-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 .
HEB-87 For if that first covenant had been faultless then
should no place have been sought for the second .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-812 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness and
their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more .
HEB-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 .
* HEB-91 Then verily the first covenant had also ordinances of
divine service and a worldly sanctuary .
HEB-92 For there was a tabernacle made the first wherein was
the candlestick and the table and the showbread which is called
the sanctuary .
HEB-93 And after the second veil the tabernacle which is called
the Holiest of all .
HEB-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 .
HEB-95 And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the
mercyseat of which we cannot now speak particularly .
HEB-96 Now when these things were thus ordained the priests
went always into the first tabernacle accomplishing the service
of God .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-910 Which stood only in meats and drinks and divers
washings and carnal ordinances imposed on them until the time of
reformation .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-916 For where a testament is there must also of necessity
be the death of the testator .
HEB-917 For a testament is of force after men are dead
otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth .
HEB-918 Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated
without blood .
HEB-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 .
HEB-920 Saying This is the blood of the testament which God
hath enjoined unto you .
HEB-921 Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle
and all the vessels of the ministry .
HEB-922 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood
and without shedding of blood is no remission .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-925 Nor yet that he should offer himself often as the high
priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of
others .
HEB-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 .
HEB-927 And as it is appointed unto men once to die but after
this the judgment .
HEB-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 .
* HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-103 But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again
made of sins every year .
HEB-104 For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of
goats should take away sins .
HEB-105 Wherefore when he cometh into the world he saith
Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not but a body hast thou
prepared me .
HEB-106 In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had
no pleasure .
HEB-107 Then said I Lo I come in the volume of the book it is
written of me to do thy will O God .
HEB-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 .
HEB-109 Then said he Lo I come to do thy will O God He taketh
away the first that he may establish the second .
HEB-1010 By the which will we are sanctified through the
offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all .
HEB-1011 And every priest standeth daily ministering and
offering oftentimes the same sacrifices which can never take
away sins .
HEB-1012 But this man after he had offered one sacrifice for
sins for ever sat down on the right hand of God .
HEB-1013 From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his
footstool .
HEB-1014 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them
that are sanctified .
HEB-1015 Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us for
after that he had said before .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1017 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more .
HEB-1018 Now where remission of these is there is no more
offering for sin .
HEB-1019 Having therefore brethren boldness to enter into the
holiest by the blood of Jesus .
HEB-1020 By a new and living way which he hath consecrated for
us through the veil that is to say his flesh .
HEB-1021 And having an high priest over the house of God .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1023 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without
wavering for he is faithful that promised .
HEB-1024 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love
and to good works .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1026 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the
knowledge of the truth there remaineth no more sacrifice for
sins .
HEB-1027 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and
fiery indignation which shall devour the adversaries .
HEB-1028 He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under
two or three witnesses .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1031 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the
living God .
HEB-1032 But call to remembrance the former days in which after
ye were illuminated ye endured a great fight of afflictions .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1035 Cast not away therefore your confidence which hath
great recompense of reward .
HEB-1036 For ye have need of patience that after ye have done
the will of God ye might receive the promise .
HEB-1037 For yet a little while and he that shall come will
come and will not tarry .
HEB-1038 Now the just shall live by faith but if any man draw
back my soul shall have no pleasure in him .
HEB-1039 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition
but of them that believe to the saving of the soul .
* HEB-111 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for the
evidence of things not seen .
HEB-112 For by it the elders obtained a good report .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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
.
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1110 For he looked for a city which hath foundations whose
builder and maker is God .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1114 For they that say such things declare plainly that
they seek a country .
HEB-1115 And truly if they had been mindful of that country
from whence they came out they might have had opportunity to
have returned .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1117 By faith Abraham when he was tried offered up Isaac
and he that had received the promises offered up his only
begotten son .
HEB-1118 Of whom it was said That in Isaac shall thy seed be
called .
HEB-1119 Accounting that God was able to raise him up even from
the dead from whence also he received him in a figure .
HEB-1120 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning
things to come .
HEB-1121 By faith Jacob when he was a dying blessed both the
sons of Joseph and worshipped leaning upon the top of his staff .
HEB-1122 By faith Joseph when he died made mention of the
departing of the children of Israel and gave commandment
concerning his bones .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1124 By faith Moses when he was come to years refused to be
called the son of Pharaoh's daughter .
HEB-1125 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people
of God than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season .
HEB-1126 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than
the treasures in Egypt for he had respect unto the recompense of
the reward .
HEB-1127 By faith he forsook Egypt not fearing the wrath of the
king for he endured as seeing him who is invisible .
HEB-1128 Through faith he kept the passover and the sprinkling
of blood lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them .
HEB-1129 By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry
land which the Egyptians assaying to do were drowned .
HEB-1130 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after they
were compassed about seven days .
HEB-1131 By faith the harlot Rahab perished not with them that
believed not when she had received the spies with peace .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1133 Who through faith subdued kingdoms wrought
righteousness obtained promises stopped the mouths of lions .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1135 Women received their dead raised to life again and
others were tortured not accepting deliverance that they might
obtain a better resurrection .
HEB-1136 And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings
yea moreover of bonds and imprisonment .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1138 Of whom the world was not worthy they wandered in
deserts and in mountains and in dens and caves of the earth .
HEB-1139 And these all having obtained a good report through
faith received not the promise .
HEB-1140 God having provided some better thing for us that they
without us should not be made perfect .
* HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-123 For consider him that endured such contradiction of
sinners against himself lest ye be wearied and faint in your
minds .
HEB-124 Ye have not yet resisted unto blood striving against
sin .
HEB-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 .
HEB-126 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth and scourgeth
every son whom he receiveth .
HEB-127 If ye endure chastening God dealeth with you as with
sons for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not .
HEB-128 But if ye be without chastisement whereof all are
partakers then are ye bastards and not sons .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1212 Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down and the
feeble knees .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1214 Follow peace with all men and holiness without which
no man shall see the Lord .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1216 Lest there be any fornicator or profane person as Esau
who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1219 And the sound of a trumpet and the voice of words
which voice they that heard entreated that the word should not
be spoken to them any more .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1221 And so terrible was the sight that Moses said I
exceedingly fear and quake .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1224 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant and to
the blood of sprinkling that speaketh better things than that of
Abel .
HEB-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
.
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1229 For our God is a consuming fire .
* HEB-131 Let brotherly love continue .
HEB-132 Be not forgetful to entertain strangers for thereby
some have entertained angels unawares .
HEB-133 Remember them that are in bonds as bound with them and
them which suffer adversity as being yourselves also in the body
.
HEB-134 Marriage is honourable in all and the bed undefiled but
whoremongers and adulterers God will judge .
HEB-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 .
HEB-136 So that we may boldly say The Lord is my helper and I
will not fear what man shall do unto me .
HEB-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 .
HEB-138 Jesus Christ the same yesterday and to day and for ever
.
HEB-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 .
HEB-1310 We have an altar whereof they have no right to eat
which serve the tabernacle .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1312 Wherefore Jesus also that he might sanctify the people
with his own blood suffered without the gate .
HEB-1313 Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp
bearing his reproach .
HEB-1314 For here have we no continuing city but we seek one to
come .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1316 But to do good and to communicate forget not for with
such sacrifices God is well pleased .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1318 Pray for us for we trust we have a good conscience in
all things willing to live honestly .
HEB-1319 But I beseech you the rather to do this that I may be
restored to you the sooner .
HEB-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 .
HEB-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 .
HEB-1322 And I beseech you brethren suffer the word of
exhortation for I have written a letter unto you in few words .
HEB-1323 Know ye that our brother Timothy is set at liberty
with whom if he come shortly I will see you .
HEB-1324 Salute all them that have the rule over you and all
the saints They of Italy salute you .
HEB-1325 Grace be with you all Amen .
