• 1 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,
• 2 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.
• 3 For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.
• 4 Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.
• 5 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:
• 6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
• 7 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
• 8 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
• 9 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?
• 10 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.
• 11 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.
• 12 Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;
• 13 And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.
• 14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:
• 15 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;
• 16 Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.
• 17 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.
• 18 For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,
• 19 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:
• 20 (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:
• 21 And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:)
• 22 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,
• 23 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,
• 24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel.
• 25 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:
• 26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.
• 27 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.
• 28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
• 29 For our God is a consuming fire.

• 1 Wherefore ^{G5105 PRT} seeing we ^{G2249 P-1NP} also ^{G2532 CONJ} are compassed about ^{G4029 V-PNP-ASN} with ^{G2254 P-1DP} so great ^{G5118 D-ASN} a cloud ^{G3509 N-ASN} of witnesses ^{G3144 N-GPM} , let us lay aside ^{G659 V-2AMP-NPM} every ^{G3956 A-ASM} weight ^{G3591 N-ASM} , and ^{G2532 CONJ} the ^{G3588 T-ASF} sin ^{G266 N-ASF} which doth so easily beset ^{G2139 A-ASF} us , and ^{G2532 CONJ} let us run ^{G5143 V-PAS-1P} with ^{G1223 PREP} patience ^{G5281 N-GSF} the ^{G3588 T-ASF} race ^{G73 N-ASM} that is set before ^{G4295 V-PNP-ASM} us ^{G2254 P-1DP} ,
• 2 Looking ^{G872 V-PAP-NPM} unto ^{G1519 PREP} Jesus ^{G2424 N-ASM} the ^{G3588 T-ASM} author ^{G747 N-ASM} and ^{G2532 CONJ} finisher ^{G5051 N-ASM} of our faith ^{G4102 N-GSF} ; who ^{G3739 R-NSM} for ^{G3588 T-ASM} the ^{G3588 T-GSF} joy ^{G5479 N-GSF} that was set before ^{G4295 V-PNP-GSF} him ^G848 endured ^{G5278 V-AAI-3S} the cross ^{G4716 N-ASM} , despising ^{G2706 V-AAP-NSM} the shame ^{G152 N-GSF} , and ^{G5037 PRT} is set down ^{G2523 V-RAI-3S} at ^{G1722 PREP} the right hand ^{G1188 A-DSF} of ^{G3588 T-GSM} the ^{G3588 T-GSM} throne ^{G2362 N-GSM} of God ^{G2316 N-GSM} .
• 3 For ^{G1063 CONJ} consider ^{G357 V-ADM-2P} him ^{G3588 T-ASM} that ^{G3588 T-ASM} endured ^{G5278 V-RAP-ASM} such ^{G5108 D-ASF} contradiction ^{G485 N-ASF} of ^{G3588 T-GPM} sinners ^{G268 A-GPM} against ^{G1519 PREP} himself ^G848 , lest ^G3363 ye be wearied ^{G2577 V-2AAS-2P} and faint ^{G1590 V-PPP-NPM} in your ^{G3588 T-DPF} minds ^{G5590 N-DPF} .
• 4 Ye have not yet ^{G3768 ADV} resisted ^{G478 V-2AAI-2P} unto ^{G3360 ADV} blood ^{G129 N-GSN} , striving ^{G464 V-PNP-NPM} against ^{G4314 PREP} sin ^{G266 N-ASF} .
• 5 And ^{G2532 CONJ} ye have forgotten ^{G1585 V-RPI-2P} the ^{G3588 T-GSF} exhortation ^{G3874 N-GSF} which ^{G3748 R-NSF} speaketh ^{G1256 V-PNI-3S} unto you ^{G5213 P-2DP} as ^{G5613 ADV} unto children ^{G5207 N-DPM} , My ^{G3450 P-1GS} son ^{G5207 N-VSM} , despise ^{G3643 V-PAM-2S} not ^{G3361 PRT-N} thou the chastening ^{G3809 N-GSF} of the Lord ^{G2962 N-GSM} , nor ^{G3366 CONJ} faint ^{G1590 V-PPM-2S} when thou art rebuked ^{G1651 V-PPP-NSM} of ^{G5259 PREP} him ^{G846 P-GSM} :
• 6 For ^{G1063 CONJ} whom ^{G3739 R-ASM} the Lord ^{G2962 N-NSM} loveth ^{G25 V-PAI-3S} he chasteneth ^{G3811 V-PAI-3S} , and ^{G1161 CONJ} scourgeth ^{G3146 V-PAI-3S} every ^{G3956 A-ASM} son ^{G5207 N-ASM} whom ^{G3739 R-ASM} he receiveth ^{G3858 V-PNI-3S} .
• 7 If ^G1487 ye endure ^{G5278 V-PAI-2P} chastening ^{G3809 N-ASF} , God ^{G2316 N-NSM} dealeth ^{G4374 V-PPI-3S} with you ^{G5213 P-2DP} as ^{G5613 ADV} with sons ^{G5207 N-DPM} ; for ^{G1063 CONJ} what ^{G5101 I-NSM} son ^{G5207 N-NSM} is ^{G2076 V-PXI-3S} he whom ^{G3739 R-ASM} the father ^{G3962 N-NSM} chasteneth ^{G3811 V-PAI-3S} not ^{G3756 PRT-N} ?
• 8 But ^{G1161 CONJ} if ^{G1487 COND} ye be ^{G2075 V-PXI-2P} without ^{G5565 ADV} chastisement ^{G3809 N-GSF} , whereof ^{G3739 R-GSF} all ^{G3956 A-NPM} are ^{G1096 V-2RAI-3P} partakers ^{G3353 A-NPM} , then ^{G686 PRT} are ^{G2075 V-PXI-2P} ye bastards ^{G3541 A-NPM} , and ^{G2532 CONJ} not ^{G3756 PRT-N} sons ^{G5207 N-NPM} .
• 9 Furthermore ^{G1534 ADV} we have had ^{G2192 V-IAI-1P} fathers ^{G3962 N-APM} of ^{G3588 T-GSF} our ^{G3588 T-GSF} flesh ^{G4561 N-GSF} which corrected ^{G3810 N-APM} us , and ^{G2532 CONJ} we gave them reverence ^{G1788 V-IMI-1P} : shall we not ^{G3756 PRT-N} much ^{G4183 A-DSN} rather ^{G3123 ADV} be in subjection ^{G5293 V-2FPI-1P} unto the ^{G3588 T-DSM} Father ^{G3962 N-DSM} of spirits ^{G4151 N-GPN} , and ^{G2532 CONJ} live ^{G2198 V-FAI-1P} ?
• 10 For ^{G1063 CONJ} they ^{G3588 T-NPM} verily ^{G3303 PRT} for ^{G4314 PREP} a few ^{G3641 A-APF} days ^{G2250 N-APF} chastened ^{G3811 V-IAI-3P} us after ^{G2596 PREP} their ^{G3588 T-ASN} own ^G848 pleasure ^{G1380 V-PAP-ASN} ; but ^{G1161 CONJ} he ^{G3588 T-ASN} for ^{G3588 T-ASN} our profit ^{G4851 V-PAP-ASN} , that ^{G3588 T-ASN} we ^{G3588 T-ASN} might be partakers ^{G3335 V-2AAN} of ^{G3588 T-GSF} his ^{G3588 T-GSF} holiness ^{G41 N-GSF} .
• 11 Now ^{G1161 CONJ} no ^{G3956 A-NSF} chastening ^{G3809 N-NSF} for ^{G4314 PREP} the ^{G3588 T-ASN} present ^{G3918 V-PXP-ASN} seemeth ^{G1380 V-PAI-3S} to be ^{G1511 V-PXN} joyous ^{G5479 N-GSF} , but ^{G235 CONJ} grievous ^{G3077 N-GSF} : nevertheless ^{G1161 CONJ} afterward ^{G5305 ADV} it yieldeth ^{G591 V-PAI-3S} the peaceable ^{G1516 A-ASF} fruit ^{G2590 N-ASM} of righteousness ^{G1343 N-GSF} unto them ^{G3588 T-DPM} which ^{G3588 T-DPM} are exercised ^{G1128 V-RPP-DPM} thereby ^{G1223 PREP} .

• 14 Follow ^{G1377 V-PAM-2P} peace ^{G1515 N-ASF} with ^{G3326 PREP} all ^{G3956 A-GPM} men , and ^{G2532 CONJ} holiness ^{G38 N-ASM} , without ^{G5565 ADV} which ^{G3739 R-GSM} no man ^{G3762 A-NSM} shall see ^{G3700 V-FDI-3S} the ^{G3588 T-ASM} Lord ^{G2962 N-ASM} :
• 15 Looking diligently ^{G1983 V-PAP-NPM} lest ^{G3361 PRT-N} any man ^{G5100 X-NSM} fail ^{G5302 V-PAP-NSM} of ^{G575 PREP} the ^{G3588 T-GSF} grace ^{G5485 N-GSF} of God ^{G2316 N-GSM} ; lest ^{G3361 PRT-N} any ^{G5100 X-NSF} root ^{G4491 N-NSF} of bitterness ^{G4088 N-GSF} springing ^{G5453 V-PAP-NSF} up ^{G507 ADV} trouble ^{G1776 V-PAS-3S} you , and ^{G2532 CONJ} thereby ^{G1223 PREP} many ^{G4183 A-NPM} be defiled ^{G3392 V-APS-3P} ;

• 17 For ^{G1063 CONJ} ye know ^{G2467 V-RAM-2P} how that ^{G3754 CONJ} afterward ^{G3347 ADV} , when he would ^{G2309 V-PAP-NSM} have inherited ^{G2816 V-AAN} the ^{G3588 T-ASF} blessing ^{G2129 N-ASF} , he was rejected ^{G593 V-API-3S} : for ^{G1063 CONJ} he found ^{G2147 V-2AAI-3S} no ^{G3756 PRT-N} place ^{G5117 N-ASM} of repentance ^{G3341 N-GSF} , though ^{G2539 CONJ} he sought it carefully ^{G1567 V-AAP-NSM} with ^{G3326 PREP} tears ^{G1144 N-GPN} .
• 18 For ^{G1063 CONJ} ye are not ^{G3756 PRT-N} come ^{G4334 V-2RAI-2P} unto the mount ^{G3735 N-DSN} that might be touched ^{G5584 V-PPP-DSN} , and ^{G2532 CONJ} that burned ^{G2545 V-RPP-DSN} with fire ^{G4442 N-DSN} , nor ^{G2532 CONJ} unto blackness ^{G1105 N-DSM} , and ^{G2532 CONJ} darkness ^{G4655 N-DSM} , and ^{G2532 CONJ} tempest ^{G2366 N-DSF} ,
• 19 And ^{G2532 CONJ} the sound ^{G2279 N-DSM} of a trumpet ^{G4536 N-GSF} , and ^{G2532 CONJ} the voice ^{G5456 N-DSF} of words ^{G4487 N-GPN} ; which ^{G3739 R-GSF} voice they that heard ^{G191 V-AAP-NPM} entreated ^{G3868 V-ADI-3P} that the word ^{G3056 N-ASM} should not ^{G3361 PRT-N} be spoken to them any more ^{G4369 V-APN} :
• 20 ( ^CONJ For ^CONJ they could not ^{G3756 PRT-N} endure ^{G5342 V-IAI-3P} that which was commanded ^{G1291 V-PPP-ASN} , And if so much as ^{G2579 COND-C} a beast ^{G2342 N-NSN} touch ^{G2345 V-2AAS-3S} the ^{G3588 T-GSN} mountain ^{G3735 N-GSN} , it shall be stoned ^{G3036 V-FPI-3S} , or thrust through ^G2700 with a dart ^G1002 :
• 21 And ^{G2532 CONJ} so ^{G3779 ADV} terrible ^{G5398 A-NSN} was ^{G2258 V-IXI-3S} the ^{G3588 T-NSN} sight ^{G5324 V-PPP-NSN} , that Moses ^{G3475 N-NSM} said ^{G2036 V-2AAI-3S} , I exceedingly fear ^{G1510 V-PXI-1S} and ^{G2532 CONJ} quake ^{G1790 A-NSM} : )

• 23 To the general assembly ^{G3831 N-DSF} and ^{G2532 CONJ} church ^{G1577 N-DSF} of the firstborn ^{G4416 A-GPM} , which are written ^{G583 V-RPP-GPM} in ^{G1722 PREP} heaven ^{G3772 N-DPM} , and ^{G2532 CONJ} to God ^{G2316 N-DSM} the Judge ^{G2923 N-DSM} of all ^{G3956 A-GPM} , and ^{G2532 CONJ} to the spirits ^{G4151 N-DPN} of just men ^{G1342 A-GPM} made perfect ^{G5048 V-RPP-GPM} ,
• 24 And ^{G2532 CONJ} to Jesus ^{G2424 N-DSM} the mediator ^{G3316 N-DSM} of the new ^{G3501 A-GSF} covenant ^{G1242 N-GSF} , and ^{G2532 CONJ} to the blood ^{G129 N-DSN} of sprinkling ^{G4473 N-GSM} , that speaketh ^{G2980 V-PAP-DSM} better things ^{G2909 A-ASN} than ^{G3844 PREP} that of Abel ^{G6 N-PRI} .
• 25 See ^{G991 V-PAM-2P} that ye refuse ^{G3868 V-ADS-2P} not ^{G3361 PRT-N} him that speaketh ^{G2980 V-PAP-ASM} . For ^{G1063 CONJ} if ^{G1487 COND} they ^{G1565 D-NPM} escaped ^{G5343 V-2AAI-3P} not ^{G3756 PRT-N} who refused ^{G3868 V-ADP-NPM} him ^{G3588 T-ASM} that ^{G3588 T-ASM} spake ^{G5537 V-PAP-ASM} on ^{G1909 PREP} earth ^{G1093 N-GSF} , much ^{G4183 A-DSN} more ^{G3123 ADV} shall not we ^{G2249 P-1NP} escape , if we turn away from ^{G654 V-PMP-NPM} him ^{G3588 T-ASM} that speaketh from ^{G575 PREP} heaven ^{G3772 N-GPM} :
• 26 Whose ^{G3739 R-GSM} voice ^{G5456 N-NSF} then ^{G5119 ADV} shook ^{G4531 V-AAI-3S} the ^{G3588 T-ASF} earth ^{G1093 N-ASF} : but ^{G1161 CONJ} now ^{G3568 ADV} he hath promised ^{G1861 V-RNI-3S} , saying ^{G3004 V-PAP-NSM} , Yet ^{G2089 ADV} once more ^{G530 ADV} I ^{G1473 P-1NS} shake ^{G4579 V-PAI-1S} not ^{G3756 PRT-N} the ^{G3588 T-ASF} earth ^{G1093 N-ASF} only ^{G3440 ADV} , but ^{G235 CONJ} also ^{G2532 CONJ} heaven ^{G3772 N-ASM} .
• 27 And ^{G1161 CONJ} this ^{G3588 T-NSN} word , Yet ^{G2089 ADV} once more ^{G530 ADV} , signifieth ^{G1213 V-PAI-3S} the ^{G3588 T-ASF} removing ^{G3331 N-ASF} of those things that are shaken ^{G4531 V-PPP-GPN} , as ^{G5613 ADV} of things that are made ^{G4160 V-RPP-GPM} , that ^{G2443 CONJ} those things which cannot be shaken ^{G4531 V-PPP-NPN} may remain ^{G3306 V-AAS-3S} .

• 1 Therefore, we also having so great a cloud of witnesses set around us, every weight having put off, and the closely besetting sin, through endurance may we run the contest that is set before us,
• 2 looking to the author and perfecter of faith -- Jesus, who, over-against the joy set before him -- did endure a cross, shame having despised, on the right hand also of the throne of God did sit down;
• 3 for consider again him who endured such gainsaying from the sinners to himself, that ye may not be wearied in your souls -- being faint.
• 4 Not yet unto blood did ye resist -- with the sin striving;
• 5 and ye have forgotten the exhortation that doth speak fully with you as with sons, `My son, be not despising chastening of the Lord, nor be faint, being reproved by Him,
• 6 for whom the Lord doth love He doth chasten, and He scourgeth every son whom He receiveth;`
• 7 if chastening ye endure, as to sons God beareth Himself to you, for who is a son whom a father doth not chasten?
• 8 and if ye are apart from chastening, of which all have become partakers, then bastards are ye, and not sons.
• 9 Then, indeed, fathers of our flesh we have had, chastising us, and we were reverencing them; shall we not much rather be subject to the Father of the spirits, and live?
• 10 for they, indeed, for a few days, according to what seemed good to them, were chastening, but He for profit, to be partakers of His separation;
• 11 and all chastening for the present, indeed, doth not seem to be of joy, but of sorrow, yet afterward the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those exercised through it -- it doth yield.
• 12 Wherefore, the hanging-down hands and the loosened knees set ye up;
• 13 and straight paths make for your feet, that that which is lame may not be turned aside, but rather be healed;
• 14 peace pursue with all, and the separation, apart from which no one shall see the Lord,
• 15 looking diligently over lest any one be failing of the grace of God, lest any root of bitterness springing up may give trouble, and through this many may be defiled;
• 16 lest any one be a fornicator, or a profane person, as Esau, who in exchange for one morsel of food did sell his birthright,
• 17 for ye know that also afterwards, wishing to inherit the blessing, he was disapproved of, for a place of reformation he found not, though with tears having sought it.
• 18 For ye came not near to the mount touched and scorched with fire, and to blackness, and darkness, and tempest,
• 19 and a sound of a trumpet, and a voice of sayings, which those having heard did entreat that a word might not be added to them,
• 20 for they were not bearing that which is commanded, `And if a beast may touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or with an arrow shot through,`
• 21 and, (so terrible was the sight,) Moses said, `I am fearful exceedingly, and trembling.`
• 22 But, ye came to Mount Zion, and to a city of the living God, to the heavenly Jerusalem, and to myriads of messengers,
• 23 to the company and assembly of the first-born in heaven enrolled, and to God the judge of all, and to spirits of righteous men made perfect,
• 24 and to a mediator of a new covenant -- Jesus, and to blood of sprinkling, speaking better things than that of Abel!
• 25 See, may ye not refuse him who is speaking, for if those did not escape who refused him who upon earth was divinely speaking -- much less we who do turn away from him who speaketh from heaven,
• 26 whose voice the earth shook then, and now hath he promised, saying, `Yet once -- I shake not only the earth, but also the heaven;`
• 27 and this -- `Yet once` -- doth make evident the removal of the things shaken, as of things having been made, that the things not shaken may remain;
• 28 wherefore, a kingdom that cannot be shaken receiving, may we have grace, through which we may serve God well-pleasingly, with reverence and religious fear;
• 29 for also our God is a consuming fire.

• 1 Therefore let us also, seeing we are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, 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,
• 2 looking unto Jesus the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising shame, and hath sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
• 3 For consider him that hath endured such gainsaying of sinners against himself, that ye wax not weary, fainting in your souls.
• 4 Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin:
• 5 and ye have forgotten the exhortation which reasoneth with you as with sons, My son, regard not lightly the chastening of the Lord, Nor faint when thou art reproved of him;
• 6 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, And scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
• 7 It is for chastening that ye endure; God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is there whom his father chasteneth not?
• 8 But if ye are without chastening, whereof all have been made partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
• 9 Furthermore, we had the fathers of our flesh to chasten us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?
• 10 For they indeed for a few days chastened us as seemed good to them; but he for our profit, that we may be partakers of his holiness.
• 11 All chastening seemeth for the present to be not joyous but grievous; yet afterward it yieldeth peaceable fruit unto them that have been exercised thereby, even the fruit of righteousness.
• 12 Wherefore lift up the hands that hang down, and the palsied knees;
• 13 and make straight paths for your feet, that that which is lame be not turned out of the way, but rather be healed.
• 14 Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man shall see the Lord:
• 15 looking carefully lest there be any man that falleth short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby the many be defiled;
• 16 lest there be any fornication, or profane person, as Esau, who for one mess of meat sold his own birthright.
• 17 For ye know that even when he afterward desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected; for he found no place for a change of mind in his father, though he sought is diligently with tears.
• 18 For ye are not come unto a mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, and unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,
• 19 and the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard entreated that no word more should be spoken unto them;
• 20 for they could not endure that which was enjoined, If even a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned;
• 21 and so fearful was the appearance, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:
• 22 but ye are come unto mount Zion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable hosts of angels,
• 23 to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,
• 24 and to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaketh better than that of Abel.
• 25 See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not when they refused him that warned them on earth, much more shall not we escape who turn away from him that warneth from heaven:
• 26 whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more will I make to tremble not the earth only, but also the heaven.
• 27 And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, that those things which are not shaken may remain.
• 28 Wherefore, receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us have grace, whereby we may offer service well-pleasing to God with reverence and awe:
• 29 for our God is a consuming fire.

Hebrews 12:1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29

• 1 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,
• 2 looking to Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
• 3 For consider him who has endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, that you don't grow weary, fainting in your souls.
• 4 You have not yet resisted to blood, striving against sin;
• 5 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;
• 6 For whom the Lord loves, he chastens, And scourges every son whom he receives."
• 7 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?
• 8 But if you are without discipline, whereof all have been made partakers, then are you illegitimate, and not children.
• 9 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?
• 10 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.
• 11 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.
• 12 Therefore, lift up the hands that hang down and the feeble knees,
• 13 and make straight paths for your feet, so that which is lame may not be dislocated, but rather be healed.
• 14 Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man will see the Lord,
• 15 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 thereby the many be defiled;
• 16 lest there be any sexually immoral person, or profane person, as Esau, who sold his birthright for one meal.
• 17 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.
• 18 For you have not come to a mountain that might be touched, and that burned with fire, and to blackness, darkness, tempest,
• 19 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,
• 20 for they could not stand that which was commanded, "If even an animal touches the mountain, it shall be stoned;"
• 21 and so fearful was the appearance, that Moses said, "I am terrified and trembling."
• 22 But you have come to Mount Zion, and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable hosts of angels,
• 23 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,
• 24 to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better than that of Abel.
• 25 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,
• 26 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."
• 27 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.
• 28 Therefore, receiving a kingdom that can't be shaken, let us have grace, through which we serve God acceptably, with reverence and awe,
• 29 for our God is a consuming fire.

Hebrews 12:1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29

• 1 Why seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which does so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
• 2 Looking to 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.
• 3 For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest you be wearied and faint in your minds.
• 4 You have not yet resisted to blood, striving against sin.
• 5 And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to children, My son, despise not you the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when you are rebuked of him:
• 6 For whom the Lord loves he chastens, and whips every son whom he receives.
• 7 If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chastens not?
• 8 But if you be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are you bastards, and not sons.
• 9 Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection to the Father of spirits, and live?
• 10 For they truly for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.
• 11 Now no chastening for the present seems to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to them which are exercised thereby.
• 12 Why lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;
• 13 And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.
• 14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:
• 15 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;
• 16 Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.
• 17 For you 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.
• 18 For you are not come to the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor to blackness, and darkness, and tempest,
• 19 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:
• 20 (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:
• 21 And so terrible was the sight, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:)
• 22 But you are come to mount Sion, and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,
• 23 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,
• 24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaks better things that that of Abel.
• 25 See that you refuse not him that speaks. For if they escaped not who refused him that spoke on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaks from heaven:
• 26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he has promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.
• 27 And this word, Yet once more, signifies the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.
• 28 Why we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
• 29 For our God is a consuming fire.

Hebrews 12:1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29

• 1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, we must get rid of every weight and the sin that clings so closely, and run with endurance the race set out for us,
• 2 keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of our faith. For the joy set out for him he endured the cross, disregarding its shame, and has taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of God.
• 3 Think of him who endured such opposition against himself by sinners, so that you may not grow weary in your souls and give up.
• 4 You have not yet resisted to the point of bloodshed in your struggle against sin.
• 5 And have you forgotten the exhortation addressed to you as sons? "My son, do not scorn the Lord's discipline or give up when he corrects you.
• 6 "For the Lord disciplines the one he loves and chastises every son he accepts."
• 7 Endure your suffering as discipline; God is treating you as sons. For what son is there that a father does not discipline?
• 8 But if you do not experience discipline, something all sons have shared in, then you are illegitimate and are not sons.
• 9 Besides, we have experienced discipline from our earthly fathers and we respected them; shall we not submit ourselves all the more to the Father of spirits and receive life?
• 10 For they disciplined us for a little while as seemed good to them, but he does so for our benefit, that we may share his holiness.
• 11 Now all discipline seems painful at the time, not joyful. But later it produces the fruit of peace and righteousness for those trained by it.
• 12 Therefore, strengthen your listless hands and your weak knees,
• 13 and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be put out of joint but be healed.
• 14 Pursue peace with everyone, and holiness, for without it no one will see the Lord.
• 15 See to it that no one comes short of the grace of God, that no one be like a bitter root springing up and causing trouble, and through him many become defiled.
• 16 And see to it that no one becomes an immoral or godless person like Esau, who sold his own birthright for a single meal.
• 17 For you know that later when he wanted to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no opportunity for repentance, although he sought the blessing with tears.
• 18 For you have not come to something that can be touched, to a burning fire and darkness and gloom and a whirlwind
• 19 and the blast of a trumpet and a voice uttering words such that those who heard begged to hear no more.
• 20 For they could not bear what was commanded: "If even an animal touches the mountain, it must be stoned."
• 21 In fact, the scene was so terrifying that Moses said, "I shudder with fear."
• 22 But you have come to Mount Zion, the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to myriads of angels, to the assembly
• 23 and congregation of the firstborn, who are enrolled in heaven, and to God, the judge of all, and to the spirits of the righteous, who have been made perfect,
• 24 and to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks of something better than Abel's does.
• 25 Take care not to refuse the one who is speaking! For if they did not escape when they refused the one who warned them on earth, how much less shall we, if we reject the one who warns from heaven?
• 26 Then his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, "I will once more shake not only the earth but heaven too."
• 27 Now this phrase "once more" indicates the removal of what is shaken, that is, of created things, so that what is unshaken may remain.
• 28 So since we are receiving an unshakable kingdom, let us give thanks, and through this let us offer worship pleasing to God in devotion and awe.
• 29 For our God is indeed a devouring fire.
