HEB 1:1  God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto
 the fathers by the prophets,
HEB 1:2  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 1:3  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 1:4  Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance
 obtained a more excellent name than they.
HEB 1:5  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 1:6  And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he
 saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.
HEB 1:7  And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his
 ministers a flame of fire.
HEB 1:8  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 1:9  Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even
 thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
HEB 1:10  And, Thou, Lord, in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the
 earth; and the heavens are the works of thine hands:
HEB 1:11  They shall perish; but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as
 doth a garment;
HEB 1:12  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 1:13  But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand,
 until I make thine enemies thy footstool?
HEB 1:14  Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them
 who shall be heirs of salvation?
HEB 2:1  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 2:2  For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression
 and disobedience received a just recompence of reward;
HEB 2:3  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 2:4  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 2:5  For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection the world to come,
 whereof we speak.
HEB 2:6  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 2:7  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 2:8  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 2:9  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 2:10  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 2:11  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 2:12  Saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the
 church will I sing praise unto thee.
HEB 2:13  And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the
 children which God hath given me.
HEB 2:14  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 2:15  And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime
 subject to bondage.
HEB 2:16  For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on
 him the seed of Abraham.
HEB 2:17  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 2:18  For in that he himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to
 succour them that are tempted.
HEB 3:1  Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider
 the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;
HEB 3:2  Who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also Moses was faithful
 in all his house.
HEB 3:3  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 3:4  For every house is builded by some man; but he that built all things
 is God.
HEB 3:5  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 3:6  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 3:7  Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,
HEB 3:8  Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of
 temptation in the wilderness:
HEB 3:9  When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.
HEB 3:10  Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway
 err in their heart; and they have not known my ways.
HEB 3:11  So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)
HEB 3:12  Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of
 unbelief, in departing from the living God.
HEB 3:13  But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of
 you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
HEB 3:14  For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our
 confidence stedfast unto the end;
HEB 3:15  While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your
 hearts, as in the provocation.
HEB 3:16  For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came
 out of Egypt by Moses.
HEB 3:17  But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that
 had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness?
HEB 3:18  And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but
 to them that believed not?
HEB 3:19  So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.
HEB 4:1  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 4:2  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 4:3  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 4:4  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 4:5  And in this place again, If they shall enter into my rest.
HEB 4:6  Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they
 to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief:
HEB 4:7  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 4:8  For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have
 spoken of another day.
HEB 4:9  There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.
HEB 4:10  For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his
 own works, as God did from his.
HEB 4:11  Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall
 after the same example of unbelief.
HEB 4:12  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 4:13  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 4:14  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 4:15  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 4:16  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 5:1  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 5:2  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 5:3  And by reason hereof he ought, as for the people, so also for himself,
 to offer for sins.
HEB 5:4  And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of
 God, as was Aaron.
HEB 5:5  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 5:6  As he saith also in another place, Thou art a priest for ever after
 the order of Melchisedec.
HEB 5:7  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 5:8  Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he
 suffered;
HEB 5:9  And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto
 all them that obey him;
HEB 5:10  Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec.
HEB 5:11  Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be uttered, seeing ye
 are dull of hearing.
HEB 5:12  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 5:13  For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of
 righteousness: for he is a babe.
HEB 5:14  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 6:1  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 6:2  Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of
 resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.
HEB 6:3  And this will we do, if God permit.
HEB 6:4  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 6:5  And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to
 come,
HEB 6:6  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 6:7  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 6:8  But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto
 cursing; whose end is to be burned.
HEB 6:9  But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that
 accompany salvation, though we thus speak.
HEB 6:10  For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love,
 which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the
 saints, and do minister.
HEB 6:11  And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the
 full assurance of hope unto the end:
HEB 6:12  That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and
 patience inherit the promises.
HEB 6:13  For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no
 greater, he sware by himself,
HEB 6:14  Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will
 multiply thee.
HEB 6:15  And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
HEB 6:16  For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation is
 to them an end of all strife.
HEB 6:17  Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of
 promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath:
HEB 6:18  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 6:19  Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and
 stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil;
HEB 6:20  Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high
 priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
HEB 7:1  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 7:2  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 7:3  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 7:4  Now consider how great this man was, unto whom even the patriarch
 Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils.
HEB 7:5  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 7:6  But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes of
 Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.
HEB 7:7  And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better.
HEB 7:8  And here men that die receive tithes; but there he receiveth them, of
 whom it is witnessed that he liveth.
HEB 7:9  And as I may so say, Levi also, who receiveth tithes, payed tithes in
 Abraham.
HEB 7:10  For he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedec met him.
HEB 7:11  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 7:12  For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change
 also of the law.
HEB 7:13  For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe,
 of which no man gave attendance at the altar.
HEB 7:14  For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe
 Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.
HEB 7:15  And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of
 Melchisedec there ariseth another priest,
HEB 7:16  Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the
 power of an endless life.
HEB 7:17  For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of
 Melchisedec.
HEB 7:18  For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before
 for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.
HEB 7:19  For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better
 hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God.
HEB 7:20  And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest:
HEB 7:21  (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 7:22  By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.
HEB 7:23  And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to
 continue by reason of death:
HEB 7:24  But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable
 priesthood.
HEB 7:25  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 7:26  For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled,
 separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
HEB 7:27  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 7:28  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 8:1  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 8:2  A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the
 Lord pitched, and not man.
HEB 8:3  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 8:4  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 8:5  Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was
 admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith
 he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the
 mount.
HEB 8:6  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 8:7  For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place
 have been sought for the second.
HEB 8:8  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 8:9  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 8:10  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 8:11  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 8:12  For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and
 their iniquities will I remember no more.
HEB 8:13  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 9:1  Then verily the first covenant had also ordinances of divine
 service, and a worldly sanctuary.
HEB 9:2  For there was a tabernacle made; the first, wherein was the
 candlestick, and the table, and the shewbread; which is called the sanctuary.
HEB 9:3  And after the second veil, the tabernacle which is called the Holiest
 of all;
HEB 9:4  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 9:5  And over it the cherubims of glory shadowing the mercyseat; of which
 we cannot now speak particularly.
HEB 9:6  Now when these things were thus ordained, the priests went always into
 the first tabernacle, accomplishing the service of God.
HEB 9:7  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 9:8  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 9:9  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 9:10  Which stood only in meats and drinks, and divers washings, and carnal
 ordinances, imposed on them until the time of reformation.
HEB 9:11  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 9:12  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 9:13  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 9:14  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 9:15  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 9:16  For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death
 of the testator.
HEB 9:17  For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no
 strength at all while the testator liveth.
HEB 9:18  Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood.
HEB 9:19  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 9:20  Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined
 unto you.
HEB 9:21  Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the
 vessels of the ministry.
HEB 9:22  And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without
 shedding of blood is no remission.
HEB 9:23  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 9:24  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 9:25  Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest
 entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others;
HEB 9:26  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 9:27  And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the
 judgment:
HEB 9:28  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 10:1  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 10:2  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 10:3  But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made of sins
 every year.
HEB 10:4  For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should
 take away sins.
HEB 10:5  Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and
 offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:
HEB 10:6  In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no pleasure.
HEB 10:7  Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of
 me,) to do thy will, O God.
HEB 10:8  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 10:9  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 recompence
 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 11:1  Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of
 things not seen.
HEB 11:2  For by it the elders obtained a good report.
HEB 11:3  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 11:4  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 11:5  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 11:6  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 11:7  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 11:8  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 11:9  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 recompence 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 12:1  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,
HEB 12:2  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.
HEB 12:3  For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against
 himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds.
HEB 12:4  Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.
HEB 12:5  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:
HEB 12:6  For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom
 he receiveth.
HEB 12:7  If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what
 son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
HEB 12:8  But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then
 are ye bastards, and not sons.
HEB 12:9  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?
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 intreated 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 that 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 13:1  Let brotherly love continue.
HEB 13:2  Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have
 entertained angels unawares.
HEB 13:3  Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; and them which
 suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body.
HEB 13:4  Marriage is honourable in all, and the bed undefiled: but
 whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.
HEB 13:5  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 13:6  So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear
 what man shall do unto me.
HEB 13:7  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 13:8  Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
HEB 13:9  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.
