They all will grow old + like a garment does. +001:012 As a mantle, you will roll them up, and they will be changed; + but you are the same. Your years will not fail."{Psalm 102:25-27} +001:013 But which of the angels has he told at any time, "Sit at + my right hand, until I make your enemies the footstool + of your feet?"{Psalm 110:1} +001:014 Aren't they all serving spirits, sent out to do service + for the sake of those who will inherit salvation? +002:001 Therefore we ought to pay greater attention to the things + that were heard, lest perhaps we drift away. +002:002 For if the word spoken through angels proved steadfast, and every + transgression and disobedience received a just recompense; +002:003 how will we escape if we neglect so great a salvation-- + which at the first having been spoken through the Lord, + was confirmed to us by those who heard; +002:004 God also testifying with them, both by signs and wonders, + by various works of power, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit, + according to his own will? +002:005 For he didn't subject the world to come, of which we speak, + to angels. +002:006 But one has somewhere testified, saying, "What is man, that you + think of him? Or the son of man, that you care for him? +002:007 You made him a little lower than the angels. You crowned him + with glory and honor.{TR adds "and set him over the works + of your hands"} +002:008 You have put all things in subjection under his feet."{Psalm + 8:4-6} For in that he subjected all things to him, he left + nothing that is not subject to him. But now we don't see + all things subjected to him, yet. +002:009 But we see him who has been made a little lower than + the angels, Jesus, because of the suffering of death crowned + with glory and honor, that by the grace of God he should taste + of death for everyone. +002:010 For it became him, for whom are all things, and through whom + are all things, in bringing many children to glory, to make + the author of their salvation perfect through sufferings. +002:011 For both he who sanctifies and those who are sanctified + are all from one, for which cause he is not ashamed to call + them brothers{The word for "brothers" here and where + context allows may also be correctly translated "brothers + and sisters" or "siblings."}, +002:012 saying, "I will declare your name to my brothers. In the midst + of the congregation I will sing your praise."{Psalm 22:22} +002:013 Again, "I will put my trust in him."{Isaiah 8:17} Again, "Behold, + here I am with the children whom God has given me."{Isaiah 8:18} +002:014 Since then the children have shared in flesh and blood, + he also himself in like manner partook of the same, that through + death he might bring to nothing him who had the power of death, + that is, the devil, +002:015 and might deliver all of them who through fear of death were + all their lifetime subject to bondage. +002:016 For most certainly, he doesn't give help to angels, but he gives + help to the seed of Abraham. +002:017 Therefore he was obligated in all things to be made like + his brothers, that he might become a merciful and faithful + high priest in things pertaining to God, to make atonement + for the sins of the people. +002:018 For in that he himself has suffered being tempted, he is able + to help those who are tempted. +003:001 Therefore, holy brothers, partakers of a heavenly calling, + consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, Jesus; +003:002 who was faithful to him who appointed him, as also was Moses + in all his house. +003:003 For he has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses, + inasmuch as he who built the house has more honor than the house. +003:004 For every house is built by someone; but he who built all + things is God. +003:005 Moses indeed was faithful in all his house as a servant, + for a testimony of those things which were afterward to be spoken, +003:006 but Christ is faithful as a Son over his house; whose house we are, + if we hold fast our confidence and the glorying of our hope + firm to the end. +003:007 Therefore, even as the Holy Spirit says, "Today if you will + hear his voice, +003:008 don't harden your hearts, as in the provocation, like as in + the day of the trial in the wilderness, +003:009 where your fathers tested me by proving me, and saw my works + for forty years. +003:010 Therefore I was displeased with that generation, and said, + 'They always err in their heart, but they didn't know my ways;' +003:011 as I swore in my wrath, 'They will not enter into + my rest.'"{Psalm 95:7-11} +003:012 Beware, brothers, lest perhaps there be in any one of you + an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God; +003:013 but exhort one another day by day, so long as it is called "today;" + lest any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin. +003:014 For we have become partakers of Christ, if we hold fast + the beginning of our confidence firm to the end: +003:015 while it is said, "Today if you will hear his voice, + don't harden your hearts, as in the rebellion."{Psalm 95:7-8} +003:016 For who, when they heard, rebelled? No, didn't all those who + came out of Egypt by Moses? +003:017 With whom was he displeased forty years? Wasn't it with those + who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness? +003:018 To whom did he swear that they wouldn't enter into his rest, + but to those who were disobedient? +003:019 We see that they were not able to enter in because of unbelief. +004:001 Let us fear therefore, lest perhaps anyone of you should seem + to have come short of a promise of entering into his rest. +004:002 For indeed we have had good news preached to us, even as they + also did, but the word they heard didn't profit them, + because it wasn't mixed with faith by those who heard. +004:003 For we who have believed do enter into that rest, even as + he has said, "As I swore in my wrath, they will not enter + into my rest;"{Psalm 95:11} although the works were finished + from the foundation of the world. +004:004 For he has said this somewhere about the seventh day, "God rested + on the seventh day from all his works;"{Genesis 2:2} +004:005 and in this place again, "They will not enter into + my rest."{Psalm 95:11} +004:006 Seeing therefore it remains that some should enter therein, + and they to whom the good news was before preached failed + to enter in because of disobedience, +004:007 he again defines a certain day, today, saying through David + so long a time afterward (just as has been said), "Today if you + will hear his voice, don't harden your hearts."{Psalm 95:7-8} +004:008 For if Joshua had given them rest, he would not have spoken + afterward of another day. +004:009 There remains therefore a Sabbath rest for the people of God. +004:010 For he who has entered into his rest has himself also rested + from his works, as God did from his. +004:011 Let us therefore give diligence to enter into that rest, + lest anyone fall after the same example of disobedience. +004:012 For the word of God is living, and active, and sharper than any + two-edged sword, and piercing even to the dividing of soul + and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and is able to discern + the thoughts and intentions of the heart. +004:013 There is no creature that is hidden from his sight, but all + things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him with whom + we have to do. +004:014 Having then a great high priest, who has passed through + the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold tightly + to our confession. +004:015 For we don't have a high priest who can't be touched with + the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all + points tempted like we are, yet without sin. +004:016 Let us therefore draw near with boldness to the throne of grace, + that we may receive mercy, and may find grace for help + in time of need. +005:001 For every high priest, being taken from among men, is appointed + for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both + gifts and sacrifices for sins. +005:002 The high priest can deal gently with those who are ignorant and + going astray, because he himself is also surrounded with weakness. +005:003 Because of this, he must offer sacrifices for sins for the people, + as well as for himself. +005:004 Nobody takes this honor on himself, but he is called by God, + just like Aaron was. +005:005 So also Christ didn't glorify himself to be made a high priest, + but it was he who said to him, "You are my Son. + Today I have become your father."{Psalm 2:7} +005:006 As he says also in another place, "You are a priest forever, + after the order of Melchizedek."{Psalm 110:4} +005:007 He, in the days of his flesh, having offered up prayers and + petitions with strong crying and tears to him who was able + to save him from death, and having been heard for his godly fear, +005:008 though he was a Son, yet learned obedience by the things + which he suffered. +005:009 Having been made perfect, he became to all of those who obey + him the author of eternal salvation, +005:010 named by God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek. +005:011 About him we have many words to say, and hard to interpret, + seeing you have become dull of hearing. +005:012 For when by reason of the time you ought to be teachers, + you again need to have someone teach you the rudiments + of the first principles of the oracles of God. + You have come to need milk, and not solid food. +005:013 For everyone who lives on milk is not experienced in the word + of righteousness, for he is a baby. +005:014 But solid food is for those who are full grown, who by reason + of use have their senses exercised to discern good and evil. +006:001 Therefore leaving the doctrine of the first principles of Christ, + let us press on to perfection--not laying again a foundation + of repentance from dead works, of faith toward God, +006:002 of the teaching of baptisms, of laying on of hands, + of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. +006:003 This will we do, if God permits. +006:004 For concerning those who were once enlightened and tasted of + the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Spirit, +006:005 and tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the age to come, +006:006 and then fell away, it is impossible to renew them again + to repentance; seeing they crucify the Son of God for + themselves again, and put him to open shame. +006:007 For the land which has drunk the rain that comes often on it, + and brings forth a crop suitable for them for whose sake it + is also tilled, receives blessing from God; +006:008 but if it bears thorns and thistles, it is rejected and near + being cursed, whose end is to be burned. +006:009 But, beloved, we are persuaded of better things for you, + and things that accompany salvation, even though we + speak like this. +006:010 For God is not unrighteous, so as to forget your work + and the labor of love which you showed toward his name, + in that you served the saints, and still do serve them. +006:011 We desire that each one of you may show the same diligence + to the fullness of hope even to the end, +006:012 that you won't be sluggish, but imitators of those who through + faith and patience inherited the promises. +006:013 For when God made a promise to Abraham, since he could swear + by none greater, he swore by himself, +006:014 saying, "Surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I + will multiply you."{Genesis 22:17} +006:015 Thus, having patiently endured, he obtained the promise. +006:016 For men indeed swear by a greater one, and in every dispute + of theirs the oath is final for confirmation. +006:017 In this way God, being determined to show more abundantly + to the heirs of the promise the immutability of his counsel, + interposed with an oath; +006:018 that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God + to lie, we may have a strong encouragement, who have fled + for refuge to take hold of the hope set before us. +006:019 This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure + and steadfast and entering into that which is within the veil; +006:020 where as a forerunner Jesus entered for us, having become + a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek. +007:001 For this Melchizedek, king of Salem, priest of God Most High, + who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings + and blessed him, +007:002 to whom also Abraham divided a tenth part of all (being first, + by interpretation, king of righteousness, and then also king + of Salem, which is king of peace; +007:003 without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither + beginning of days nor end of life, but made like the Son of God), + remains a priest continually. +007:004 Now consider how great this man was, to whom even Abraham, + the patriarch, gave a tenth out of the best spoils. +007:005 They indeed of the sons of Levi who receive the priest's office + have a commandment to take tithes of the people according + to the law, that is, of their brothers, though these have come + out of the body of Abraham, +007:006 but he whose genealogy is not counted from them has accepted + tithes from Abraham, and has blessed him who has the promises. +007:007 But without any dispute the lesser is blessed by the greater. +007:008 Here people who die receive tithes, but there one receives + tithes of whom it is testified that he lives. +007:009 We can say that through Abraham even Levi, who receives tithes, + has paid tithes, +007:010 for he was yet in the body of his father when Melchizedek met him. +007:011 Now if there was perfection through the Levitical priesthood + (for under it the people have received the law), what further + need was there for another priest to arise after the order + of Melchizedek, and not be called after the order of Aaron? +007:012 For the priesthood being changed, there is of necessity a change + made also in the law. +007:013 For he of whom these things are said belongs to another tribe, + from which no one has officiated at the altar. +007:014 For it is evident that our Lord has sprung out of Judah, + about which tribe Moses spoke nothing concerning priesthood. +007:015 This is yet more abundantly evident, if after the likeness + of Melchizedek there arises another priest, +007:016 who has been made, not after the law of a fleshly commandment, + but after the power of an endless life: +007:017 for it is testified, "You are a priest forever, according to + the order of Melchizedek."{Psalm 110:4} +007:018 For there is an annulling of a foregoing commandment because + of its weakness and uselessness +007:019 (for the law made nothing perfect), and a bringing in of a + better hope, through which we draw near to God. +007:020 Inasmuch as he was not made priest without the taking of an oath +007:021 (for they indeed have been made priests without an oath), + but he with an oath by him that says of him, "The Lord swore + and will not change his mind, 'You are a priest forever, + according to the order of Melchizedek.'"{Psalm 110:4} +007:022 By so much, Jesus has become the collateral of a better covenant. +007:023 Many, indeed, have been made priests, because they are hindered + from continuing by death. +007:024 But he, because he lives forever, has his priesthood unchangeable. +007:025 Therefore he is also able to save to the uttermost those who draw + near to God through him, seeing that he lives forever to make + intercession for them. +007:026 For such a high priest was fitting for us: holy, guiltless, + undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; +007:027 who doesn't need, like those high priests, to offer up sacrifices + daily, first for his own sins, and then for the sins of the people. + For he did this once for all, when he offered up himself. +007:028 For the law appoints men as high priests who have weakness, + but the word of the oath which came after the law appoints + a Son forever who has been perfected. +008:001 Now in the things which we are saying, the main point is this. + We have such a high priest, who sat down on the right hand + of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens, +008:002 a servant of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, + which the Lord pitched, not man. +008:003 For every high priest is appointed to offer both gifts + and sacrifices. Therefore it is necessary that this high + priest also have something to offer. +008:004 For if he were on earth, he would not be a priest at all, + seeing there are priests who offer the gifts according + to the law; +008:005 who serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things, even as Moses + was warned by God when he was about to make the tabernacle, + for he said, "See, you shall make everything according to the + pattern that was shown to you on the mountain."{Exodus 25:40} +008:006 But now he has obtained a more excellent ministry, + by so much as he is also the mediator of a better covenant, + which on better promises has been given as law. +008:007 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then no place + would have been sought for a second. +008:008 For finding fault with them, he said, "Behold, the days come," + says the Lord, "that I will make a new covenant with the house + of Israel and with the house of Judah; +008:009 not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers, + in the day that I took them by the hand to lead them out of + the land of Egypt; for they didn't continue in my covenant, + and I disregarded them," says the Lord. +008:010 "For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel. + After those days," says the Lord; "I will put my laws + into their mind, I will also write them on their heart. + I will be their God, and they will be my people. +008:011 They will not teach every man his fellow citizen,{TR + reads "neighbor" instead of "fellow citizen"} and every man + his brother, saying, 'Know the Lord,' for all will know me, + from the least of them to the greatest of them. +008:012 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness. I will remember + their sins and lawless deeds no more."{Jeremiah 31:31-34} +008:013 In that he says, "A new covenant," he has made the first old. + But that which is becoming old and grows aged is near + to vanishing away. +009:001 Now indeed even the first{TR adds "tabernacle"} covenant had + ordinances of divine service, and an earthly sanctuary. +009:002 For a tabernacle was prepared. In the first part were the lampstand, + the table, and the show bread; which is called the Holy Place. +009:003 After the second veil was the tabernacle which is called + the Holy of Holies, +009:004 having a golden altar of incense, and the ark of the covenant + overlaid on all sides with gold, in which was a golden pot + holding the manna, Aaron's rod that budded, and the tablets + of the covenant; +009:005 and above it cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat, + of which things we can't speak now in detail. +009:006 Now these things having been thus prepared, the priests go in + continually into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the services, +009:007 but into the second the high priest alone, once in the year, + not without blood, which he offers for himself, and for + the errors of the people. +009:008 The Holy Spirit is indicating this, that the way into + the Holy Place wasn't yet revealed while the first tabernacle + was still standing; +009:009 which is a symbol of the present age, where gifts and sacrifices + are offered that are incapable, concerning the conscience, + of making the worshipper perfect; +009:010 being only (with meats and drinks and various washings) + fleshly ordinances, imposed until a time of reformation. +009:011 But Christ having come as a high priest of the coming good things, + through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made + with hands, that is to say, not of this creation, +009:012 nor yet through the blood of goats and calves, but through + his own blood, entered in once for all into the Holy Place, + having obtained eternal redemption. +009:013 For if the blood of goats and bulls, and the ashes of a heifer + sprinkling those who have been defiled, sanctify to the cleanness + of the flesh: +009:014 how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal + Spirit offered himself without blemish to God, cleanse your + conscience from dead works to serve the living God? +009:015 For this reason he is the mediator of a new covenant, since a + death has occurred for the redemption of the transgressions + that were under the first covenant, that those who have been + called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance. +009:016 For where a last will and testament is, there must of necessity + be the death of him who made it. +009:017 For a will is in force where there has been death, for it + is never in force while he who made it lives. +009:018 Therefore even the first covenant has not been dedicated + without blood. +009:019 For when every commandment had been spoken by Moses to all + the people according to the law, he took the blood of the calves + and the goats, with water and scarlet wool and hyssop, + and sprinkled both the book itself and all the people, +009:020 saying, "This is the blood of the covenant which God has + commanded you."{Exodus 24:8} +009:021 Moreover he sprinkled the tabernacle and all the vessels + of the ministry in like manner with the blood. +009:022 According to the law, nearly everything is cleansed with blood, + and apart from shedding of blood there is no remission. +009:023 It was necessary therefore that the copies of the things + in the heavens should be cleansed with these; but the heavenly + things themselves with better sacrifices than these. +009:024 For Christ hasn't entered into holy places made with hands, + which are representations of the true, but into heaven itself, + now to appear in the presence of God for us; +009:025 nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest + enters into the holy place year by year with blood not his own, +009:026 or else he must have suffered often since the foundation + of the world. But now once at the end of the ages, he has + been revealed to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself. +009:027 Inasmuch as it is appointed for men to die once, + and after this, judgment, +009:028 so Christ also, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, + will appear a second time, without sin, to those who are + eagerly waiting for him for salvation. +010:001 For the law, having a shadow of the good to come, not the very + image of the things, can never with the same sacrifices + year by year, which they offer continually, make perfect + those who draw near. +010:002 Or else wouldn't they have ceased to be offered, + because the worshippers, having been once cleansed, + would have had no more consciousness of sins? +010:003 But in those sacrifices there is yearly reminder of sins. +010:004 For it is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats should + take away sins. +010:005 Therefore when he comes into the world, he says, "Sacrifice and + offering you didn't desire, but you prepared a body for me; +010:006 You had no pleasure in whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin. +010:007 Then I said, 'Behold, I have come (in the scroll of the book + it is written of me) to do your will, O God.'"{Psalm 40:6-8} +010:008 Previously saying, "Sacrifices and offerings and whole + burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin you didn't desire, + neither had pleasure in them" (those which are offered + according to the law), +010:009 then he has said, "Behold, I have come to do your will." + He takes away the first, that he may establish the second, +010:010 by which will we have been sanctified through the offering + of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. +010:011 Every priest indeed stands day by day serving and often offering + the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins, +010:012 but he, when he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, + sat down on the right hand of God; +010:013 from that time waiting until his enemies are made the footstool + of his feet. +010:014 For by one offering he has perfected forever those who + are being sanctified. +010:015 The Holy Spirit also testifies to us, for after saying, +010:016 "This is the covenant that I will make with them: + 'After those days,' says the Lord, 'I will put my laws on + their heart, I will also write them on their mind;'"{Jeremiah + 31:33} then he says, +010:017 "I will remember their sins and their iniquities + no more."{Jeremiah 31:34} +010:018 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin. +010:019 Having therefore, brothers, boldness to enter into the holy + place by the blood of Jesus, +010:020 by the way which he dedicated for us, a new and living way, + through the veil, that is to say, his flesh; +010:021 and having a great priest over the house of God, +010:022 let's draw near with a true heart in fullness of faith, + having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, + and having our body washed with pure water, +010:023 let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering; + for he who promised is faithful. +010:024 Let us consider how to provoke one another to love and good works, +010:025 not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom + of some is, but exhorting one another; and so much the more, + as you see the Day approaching. +010:026 For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge + of the truth, there remains no more a sacrifice for sins, +010:027 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and a fierceness + of fire which will devour the adversaries. +010:028 A man who disregards Moses' law dies without compassion on + the word of two or three witnesses. +010:029 How much worse punishment, do you think, will he be judged + worthy of, who has trodden under foot the Son of God, and has + counted the blood of the covenant with which he was sanctified + an unholy thing, and has insulted the Spirit of grace? +010:030 For we know him who said, "Vengeance belongs to me," + says the Lord, "I will repay."{Deuteronomy 32:35} Again, "The Lord + will judge his people."{Deuteronomy 32:36; Psalm 135:14} +010:031 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. +010:032 But remember the former days, in which, after you were enlightened, + you endured a great struggle with sufferings; +010:033 partly, being exposed to both reproaches and oppressions; + and partly, becoming partakers with those who were treated so. +010:034 For you both had compassion on me in my chains, and joyfully + accepted the plundering of your possessions, knowing that you + have for yourselves a better possession and an enduring one + in the heavens. +010:035 Therefore don't throw away your boldness, which has a great reward. +010:036 For you need endurance so that, having done the will of God, + you may receive the promise. +010:037 "In a very little while, he who comes will come, and will not wait. +010:038 But the righteous will live by faith. If he shrinks back, + my soul has no pleasure in him."{Habakkuk 2:3-4} +010:039 But we are not of those who shrink back to destruction, + but of those who have faith to the saving of the soul. +011:001 Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, proof of + things not seen. +011:002 For by this, the elders obtained testimony. +011:003 By faith, we understand that the universe has been framed + by the word of God, so that what is seen has not been made + out of things which are visible. +011:004 By faith, Abel offered to God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, + through which he had testimony given to him that he was righteous, + God testifying with respect to his gifts; and through it he, + being dead, still speaks. +011:005 By faith, Enoch was taken away, so that he wouldn't see death, + and he was not found, because God translated him. + For he has had testimony given to him that before his translation + he had been well pleasing to God. +011:006 Without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing to him, + for he who comes to God must believe that he exists, + and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him. +011:007 By faith, Noah, being warned about things not yet seen, + moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of + his house, through which he condemned the world, and became + heir of the righteousness which is according to faith. +011:008 By faith, Abraham, when he was called, obeyed to go out + to the place which he was to receive for an inheritance. + He went out, not knowing where he went. +011:009 By faith, he lived as an alien in the land of promise, as in + a land not his own, dwelling in tents, with Isaac and Jacob, + the heirs with him of the same promise. +011:010 For he looked for the city which has the foundations, + whose builder and maker is God. +011:011 By faith, even Sarah herself received power to conceive, + and she bore a child when she was past age, since she counted + him faithful who had promised. +011:012 Therefore as many as the stars of the sky in multitude, + and as innumerable as the sand which is by the sea shore, + were fathered by one man, and him as good as dead. +011:013 These all died in faith, not having received the promises, + but having seen{TR adds "and being convinced of"} them + and embraced them from afar, and having confessed that they + were strangers and pilgrims on the earth. +011:014 For those who say such things make it clear that they are + seeking a country of their own. +011:015 If indeed they had been thinking of that country from which they + went out, they would have had enough time to return. +011:016 But now they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. + Therefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God, + for he has prepared a city for them. +011:017 By faith, Abraham, being tested, offered up Isaac. + Yes, he who had gladly received the promises was offering up + his one and only son; +011:018 even he to whom it was said, "In Isaac will your seed + be called;"{Genesis 21:12} +011:019 concluding that God is able to raise up even from the dead. + Figuratively speaking, he also did receive him back from the dead. +011:020 By faith, Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau, even concerning + things to come. +011:021 By faith, Jacob, when he was dying, blessed each of the sons + of Joseph, and worshiped, leaning on the top of his staff. +011:022 By faith, Joseph, when his end was near, made mention of + the departure of the children of Israel; and gave instructions + concerning his bones. +011:023 By faith, Moses, when he was born, was hidden for three months + by his parents, because they saw that he was a beautiful child, + and they were not afraid of the king's commandment. +011:024 By faith, Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be called + the son of Pharaoh's daughter, +011:025 choosing rather to share ill treatment with God's people, + than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a time; +011:026 accounting the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures + of Egypt; for he looked to the reward. +011:027 By faith, he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; + for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible. +011:028 By faith, he kept the Passover, and the sprinkling of the blood, + that the destroyer of the firstborn should not touch them. +011:029 By faith, they passed through the Red Sea as on dry land. + When the Egyptians tried to do so, they were swallowed up. +011:030 By faith, the walls of Jericho fell down, after they had been + encircled for seven days. +011:031 By faith, Rahab the prostitute, didn't perish with those who + were disobedient, having received the spies in peace. +011:032 What more shall I say? For the time would fail me if I told + of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, David, Samuel, and the prophets; +011:033 who, through faith subdued kingdoms, worked out righteousness, + obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions,{Daniel 6:22-23} +011:034 quenched the power of fire,{Daniel 3:1-30} escaped the edge + of the sword,{1 Kings 19:1-3; 2 Kings 6:31-7:20} from weakness + were made strong, grew mighty in war, and caused foreign + armies to flee. +011:035 Women received their dead by resurrection.{1 Kings 19:1-3; + 2 Kings 6:31-7:20} Others were tortured, not accepting + their deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection. +011:036 Others were tried by mocking and scourging, yes, moreover by + bonds and imprisonment. +011:037 They were stoned.{2 Chronicles 24:20-21} They were sawn apart. + They were tempted. They were slain with the sword.{Jeremiah + 26:20-23; 1 Kings 19:10} They went around in sheep skins + and in goat skins; being destitute, afflicted, ill-treated +011:038 (of whom the world was not worthy), wandering in deserts, + mountains, caves, and the holes of the earth. +011:039 These all, having had testimony given to them through their faith, + didn't receive the promise, +011:040 God having provided some better thing concerning us, + so that apart from us they should not be made perfect. +012:001 Therefore let us also, seeing we are surrounded by so great + a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight and the sin + which so easily entangles us, and let us run with patience + the race that is set before us, +012:002 looking to Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, + who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, + despising its shame, and has sat down at the right hand + of the throne of God. +012:003 For consider him who has endured such contradiction + of sinners against himself, that you don't grow weary, + fainting in your souls. +012:004 You have not yet resisted to blood, striving against sin; +012:005 and you have forgotten the exhortation which reasons with you + as with children, "My son, don't take lightly the chastening + of the Lord, nor faint when you are reproved by him; +012:006 For whom the Lord loves, he chastens, and scourges every son + whom he receives."{Proverbs 3:11-12} +012:007 It is for discipline that you endure. God deals with + you as with children, for what son is there whom his + father doesn't discipline? +012:008 But if you are without discipline, of which all have been + made partakers, then are you illegitimate, and not children. +012:009 Furthermore, we had the fathers of our flesh to chasten us, + and we paid them respect. Shall we not much rather be in + subjection to the Father of spirits, and live? +012:010 For they indeed, for a few days, punished us as seemed good to them; + but he for our profit, that we may be partakers of his holiness. +012:011 All chastening seems for the present to be not joyous but grievous; + yet afterward it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness + to those who have been exercised thereby. +012:012 Therefore, lift up the hands that hang down and the + feeble knees,{Isaiah 35:3} +012:013 and make straight paths for your feet,{Proverbs 4:26} so that + which is lame may not be dislocated, but rather be healed. +012:014 Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without + which no man will see the Lord, +012:015 looking carefully lest there be any man who falls short of the grace + of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, + and many be defiled by it; +012:016 lest there be any sexually immoral person, or profane person, + like Esau, who sold his birthright for one meal. +012:017 For you know that even when he afterward desired to inherit + the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for a + change of mind though he sought it diligently with tears. +012:018 For you have not come to a mountain that might be touched, + and that burned with fire, and to blackness, darkness, storm, +012:019 the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which those who + heard it begged that not one more word should be spoken to them, +012:020 for they could not stand that which was commanded, "If even + an animal touches the mountain, it shall be stoned{TR adds "or + shot with an arrow" [see Exodus 19:12-13]};"{Exodus 19:12-13} +012:021 and so fearful was the appearance, that Moses said, "I am + terrified and trembling."{Deuteronomy 9:19} +012:022 But you have come to Mount Zion, and to the city of the living God, + the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable multitudes of angels, +012:023 to the general assembly and assembly of the firstborn who are + enrolled in heaven, to God the Judge of all, to the spirits + of just men made perfect, +012:024 to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant,{Jeremiah 31:31} + and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better than + that of Abel. +012:025 See that you don't refuse him who speaks. For if they didn't + escape when they refused him who warned on the Earth, + how much more will we not escape who turn away from him + who warns from heaven, +012:026 whose voice shook the earth then, but now he has promised, + saying, "Yet once more I will shake not only the earth, + but also the heavens."{Haggai 2:6} +012:027 This phrase, "Yet once more," signifies the removing of those + things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, + that those things which are not shaken may remain. +012:028 Therefore, receiving a Kingdom that can't be shaken, + let us have grace, through which we serve God acceptably, + with reverence and awe, +012:029 for our God is a consuming fire.{Deuteronomy 4:24} +013:001 Let brotherly love continue. +013:002 Don't forget to show hospitality to strangers, for in doing so, + some have entertained angels without knowing it. +013:003 Remember those who are in bonds, as bound with them; + and those who are ill-treated, since you are also in the body. +013:004 Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let + the bed be undefiled: but God will judge the sexually + immoral and adulterers. +013:005 Be free from the love of money, content with such things + as you have, for he has said, "I will in no way leave you, + neither will I in any way forsake you."{Deuteronomy 31:6} +013:006 So that with good courage we say, "The Lord is my helper. + I will not fear. What can man do to me?"{Psalm 118:6-7} +013:007 Remember your leaders, men who spoke to you the word of God, + and considering the results of their conduct, imitate their faith. +013:008 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. +013:009 Don't be carried away by various and strange teachings, for it + is good that the heart be established by grace, not by food, + through which those who were so occupied were not benefited. +013:010 We have an altar from which those who serve the holy tabernacle + have no right to eat. +013:011 For the bodies of those animals, whose blood is brought into + the holy place by the high priest as an offering for sin, + are burned outside of the camp.{Leviticus 16:27} +013:012 Therefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people through + his own blood, suffered outside of the gate. +013:013 Let us therefore go out to him outside of the camp, + bearing his reproach. +013:014 For we don't have here an enduring city, but we seek that + which is to come. +013:015 Through him, then, let us offer up a sacrifice of praise + to God{Psalm 50:23} continually, that is, the fruit of lips + which proclaim allegiance to his name. +013:016 But don't forget to be doing good and sharing, for with such + sacrifices God is well pleased. +013:017 Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they watch + on behalf of your souls, as those who will give account, + that they may do this with joy, and not with groaning, + for that would be unprofitable for you. +013:018 Pray for us, for we are persuaded that we have a good conscience, + desiring to live honorably in all things. +013:019 I strongly urge you to do this, that I may be restored + to you sooner. +013:020 Now may the God of peace, who brought again from the dead the great + shepherd of the sheep with the blood of an eternal covenant, + our Lord Jesus, +013:021 make you complete in every good work to do his will, working in you + that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ, + to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen. +013:022 But I exhort you, brothers, endure the word of exhortation, + for I have written to you in few words. +013:023 Know that our brother Timothy has been freed, with whom, + if he comes shortly, I will see you. +013:024 Greet all of your leaders and all the saints. + The Italians greet you. +013:025 Grace be with you all.
