HEB 01:01 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, HEB 01:02 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 01:03 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 01:04 Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they. HEB 01:05 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 01:06 And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him. HEB 01:07 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire. HEB 01:08 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 01:09 Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, [even] thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. HEB 01:10 And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands: HEB 01:11 They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment; HEB 01:12 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 01:13 But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool? HEB 01:14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation? HEB 02:01 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 02:02 For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a just recompense of reward; HEB 02:03 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 02:04 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 02:05 For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection the world to come, whereof we speak. HEB 02:06 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 02:07 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 02:08 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 02:09 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 02:10 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 02:11 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 02:12 Saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the church will I sing praise unto thee. HEB 02:13 And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the children which God hath given me. HEB 02:14 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 02:15 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage. HEB 02:16 For verily he took not on [him the nature of] angels; but he took on [him] the seed of Abraham. HEB 02:17 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 02:18 For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are tempted. HEB 03:01 Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus; HEB 03:02 Who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses [was faithful] in all his house. HEB 03:03 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 03:04 For every house is builded by some [man]; but he that built all things [is] God. HEB 03:05 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 03:06 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 03:07 Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice, HEB 03:08 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness: HEB 03:09 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years. HEB 03:10 Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in [their] heart; and they have not known my ways. HEB 03:11 So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.) HEB 03:12 Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God. HEB 03:13 But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. HEB 03:14 For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto the end; HEB 03:15 While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation. HEB 03:16 For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses. HEB 03:17 But with whom was he grieved forty years? [was it] not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness? HEB 03:18 And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not? HEB 03:19 So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief. HEB 04:01 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 04:02 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 04:03 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 04:04 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 04:05 And in this [place] again, If they shall enter into my rest. HEB 04:06 Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief: HEB 04:07 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 04:08 For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day. HEB 04:09 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God. HEB 04:10 For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God [did] from his. HEB 04:11 Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief. HEB 04:12 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 04:13 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 04:14 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 04:15 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 04:16 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 05:01 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 05:02 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 05:03 And by reason hereof he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins. HEB 05:04 And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as [was] Aaron. HEB 05:05 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 05:06 As he saith also in another [place], Thou [art] a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. HEB 05:07 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 05:08 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; HEB 05:09 And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him; HEB 05:10 Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec. HEB 05:11 Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing. HEB 05:12 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 05:13 For every one that useth milk [is] unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe. HEB 05:14 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 06:01 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 06:02 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. HEB 06:03 And this will we do, if God permit. HEB 06:04 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 06:05 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, HEB 06:06 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 06:07 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 06:08 But that which beareth thorns and briers [is] rejected, and [is] nigh unto cursing; whose end [is] to be burned. HEB 06:09 But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak. HEB 06:10 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 06:11 And we desire that every one of you do show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end: HEB 06:12 That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises. HEB 06:13 For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself, HEB 06:14 Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee. HEB 06:15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise. HEB 06:16 For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation [is] to them an end of all strife. HEB 06:17 Wherein God, willing more abundantly to show unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed [it] by an oath: HEB 06:18 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 06:19 Which [hope] we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil; HEB 06:20 Whither the forerunner is for us entered, [even] Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. HEB 07:01 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 07:02 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 07:03 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 07:04 Now consider how great this man [was], unto whom even the patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils. HEB 07:05 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 07:06 But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises. HEB 07:07 And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better. HEB 07:08 And here men that die receive tithes; but there he [receiveth them], of whom it is witnessed that he liveth. HEB 07:09 And as I may so say, Levi also, who receiveth tithes, payed tithes in Abraham. HEB 07:10 For he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedec met him. HEB 07:11 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 07:12 For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law. HEB 07:13 For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar. HEB 07:14 For [it is] evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood. HEB 07:15 And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest, HEB 07:16 Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life. HEB 07:17 For he testifieth, Thou [art] a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec. HEB 07:18 For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof. HEB 07:19 For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope [did]; by the which we draw nigh unto God. HEB 07:20 And inasmuch as not without an oath [he was made priest]: HEB 07:21 (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 07:22 By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament. HEB 07:23 And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death: HEB 07:24 But this [man], because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. HEB 07:25 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 07:26 For such an high priest became us, [who is] holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens; HEB 07:27 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 07:28 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 08:01 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 08:02 A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man. HEB 08:03 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 08:04 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 08:05 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 08:06 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 08:07 For if that first [covenant] had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second. HEB 08:08 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 08:09 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 08:10 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 08:11 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 08:12 For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more. HEB 08:13 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 09:01 Then verily the first [covenant] had also ordinances of divine service, and a worldly sanctuary. HEB 09:02 For there was a tabernacle made; the first, wherein [was] the candlestick, and the table, and the showbread; which is called the sanctuary. HEB 09:03 And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest of all; HEB 09:04 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 09:05 And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercyseat; of which we cannot now speak particularly. HEB 09:06 Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests went always into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service [of God]. HEB 09:07 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 09:08 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 09:09 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 09:10 [Which stood] only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal ordinances, imposed [on them] until the time of reformation. HEB 09:11 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 09:12 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 09:13 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 09:14 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 09:15 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 09:16 For where a testament [is], there must also of necessity be the death of the testator. HEB 09:17 For a testament [is] of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth. HEB 09:18 Whereupon neither the first [testament] was dedicated without blood. HEB 09:19 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 09:20 Saying, This [is] the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you. HEB 09:21 Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry. HEB 09:22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. HEB 09:23 [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 09:24 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 09:25 Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others; HEB 09:26 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 09:27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: HEB 09:28 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 10:01 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 10:02 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 10:03 But in those [sacrifices there is] a remembrance again [made] of sins every year. HEB 10:04 For [it is] not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins. HEB 10:05 Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: HEB 10:06 In burnt offerings and [sacrifices] for sin thou hast had no pleasure. HEB 10:07 Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy will, O God. HEB 10:08 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 10:09 Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second. HEB 10:10 By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once [for all]. HEB 10:11 And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: HEB 10:12 But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God; HEB 10:13 From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool. HEB 10:14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified. HEB 10:15 [Whereof] the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before, HEB 10:16 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 10:17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more. HEB 10:18 Now where remission of these [is, there is] no more offering for sin. HEB 10:19 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, HEB 10:20 By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh; HEB 10:21 And [having] an high priest over the house of God; HEB 10:22 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 10:23 Let us hold fast the profession of [our] faith without wavering; (for he [is] faithful that promised;) HEB 10:24 And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: HEB 10:25 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 10:26 For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, HEB 10:27 But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. HEB 10:28 He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses: HEB 10:29 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 10:30 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 10:31 [It is] a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. HEB 10:32 But call to remembrance the former days, in which, after ye were illuminated, ye endured a great fight of afflictions; HEB 10:33 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 10:34 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 10:35 Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompense of reward. HEB 10:36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise. HEB 10:37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry. HEB 10:38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if [any man] draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. HEB 10:39 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul. HEB 11:01 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. HEB 11:02 For by it the elders obtained a good report. HEB 11:03 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 11:04 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 11:05 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 11:06 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 11:07 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 11:08 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 11:09 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 11:10 For he looked for a city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker [is] God. HEB 11:11 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 11:12 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 11:13 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 11:14 For they that say such things declare plainly that they seek a country. HEB 11:15 And truly, if they had been mindful of that [country] from whence they came out, they might have had opportunity to have returned. HEB 11:16 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 11:17 By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only begotten [son]. HEB 11:18 Of whom it was said, That in Isaac shall thy seed be called: HEB 11:19 Accounting that God [was] able to raise [him] up, even from the dead; from whence also he received him in a figure. HEB 11:20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come. HEB 11:21 By faith Jacob, when he was a dying, blessed both the sons of Joseph; and worshipped, [leaning] upon the top of his staff. HEB 11:22 By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel; and gave commandment concerning his bones. HEB 11:23 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 11:24 By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter; HEB 11:25 Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; HEB 11:26 Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompense of the reward. HEB 11:27 By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible. HEB 11:28 Through faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them. HEB 11:29 By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry [land]: which the Egyptians assaying to do were drowned. HEB 11:30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they were compassed about seven days. HEB 11:31 By faith the harlot Rahab perished not with them that believed not, when she had received the spies with peace. HEB 11:32 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 11:33 Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, HEB 11:34 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 11:35 Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection: HEB 11:36 And others had trial of [cruel] mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment: HEB 11:37 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 11:38 (Of whom the world was not worthy:) they wandered in deserts, and [in] mountains, and [in] dens and caves of the earth. HEB 11:39 And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise: HEB 11:40 God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect. HEB 12:01 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 12:02 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 12:03 For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds. HEB 12:04 Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin. HEB 12:05 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 12:06 For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. HEB 12:07 If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? HEB 12:08 But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons. HEB 12:09 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 12:10 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. HEB 12:11 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. HEB 12:12 Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees; HEB 12:13 And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed. HEB 12:14 Follow peace with all [men], and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord: HEB 12:15 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; HEB 12:16 Lest there [be] any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright. HEB 12:17 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. HEB 12:18 For ye are not come unto the mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, nor unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest, HEB 12:19 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: HEB 12:20 (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: HEB 12:21 And so terrible was the sight, [that] Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:) HEB 12:22 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, HEB 12:23 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, HEB 12:24 And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than [that of] Abel. HEB 12:25 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: HEB 12:26 Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven. HEB 12:27 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. HEB 12:28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: HEB 12:29 For our God [is] a consuming fire. HEB 13:01 Let brotherly love continue. HEB 13:02 Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares. HEB 13:03 Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; [and] them which suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body. HEB 13:04 Marriage [is] honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge. HEB 13:05 [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 13:06 So that we may boldly say, The Lord [is] my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me. HEB 13:07 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 13:08 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever. HEB 13:09 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 13:10 We have an altar, whereof they have no right to eat which serve the tabernacle. HEB 13:11 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 13:12 Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people with his own blood, suffered without the gate. HEB 13:13 Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach. HEB 13:14 For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come. HEB 13:15 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 13:16 But to do good and to communicate forget not: for with such sacrifices God is well pleased. HEB 13:17 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 13:18 Pray for us: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly. HEB 13:19 But I beseech [you] the rather to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner. HEB 13:20 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 13:21 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 13:22 And I beseech you, brethren, suffer the word of exhortation: for I have written a letter unto you in few words. HEB 13:23 Know ye that [our] brother Timothy is set at liberty; with whom, if he come shortly, I will see you. HEB 13:24 Salute all them that have the rule over you, and all the saints. They of Italy salute you. HEB 13:25 Grace [be] with you all. Amen.  ~~~~~~
