For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe.

strive, because we have set our hope on the living God, who is the
Savior of
everyone, and especially of those who believe.

therefore that the younger women marry, bear children, guide the house, give none occasion to the

partaker of other men’s sins: keep
thyself pure.

therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but be thou

But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.
A large house contains not only vessels of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay. Some indeed are for honorable use, but others are for common use.
If a man
therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour,
sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.
So if
anyone cleanses himself of what is unfit, he will be a vessel for honor:
sanctified, useful to the Master, and prepared for every good work.
Having a form of
godliness, but denying the power
thereof: from such turn away.

therefore receive him, that is, mine own

anointed thee with the oil of
gladness above thy fellows.

anointed You above Your companions with the oil of joy.”
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.

confess.
Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,
Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: “
Today, if you hear His voice,
Wherefore I was
grieved with that generation, and said, They do
alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways.
Therefore I was
angry with that generation, and I said, ‘Their hearts are always going
astray, and they have not known My ways.’
Take
heed, brethren, lest
there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.
See to it, brothers, that none of you has a wicked heart of unbelief that turns away from the living God.
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.
Therefore, while the promise of entering His rest still stands, let us be careful that none of you be deemed to have fallen short of it.
Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief:
Since, then, it remains for some to enter His rest, and since those who formerly heard the good news did not enter because of their disobedience,
There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.
There remains, then, a Sabbath rest for the people of God.
Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will fall by following the same pattern of disobedience.
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.

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.

profess.

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,
Therefore let us leave the elementary teachings about Christ and go on to
maturity, not laying again the foundation of
repentance from dead works, and of faith in God,
And here men that die receive
tithes; but
there he receiveth them, of whom it is witnessed that he liveth.
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?
Now if perfection could have been attained through the
Levitical priesthood (for on this basis the people received the law), why was
there still need for another priest to appear—one in the order of
Melchizedek and not in the order of Aaron?
For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.
For when the priesthood is changed, the law must be changed as well.
And it is yet far more evident: for that after the
similitude of Melchisedec
there ariseth another priest,
And this point is even more clear if another priest like
Melchizedek appears,
For
there is
verily a
disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness
thereof.
So the former commandment is set aside because it was weak and useless
And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:
Now there have been many other priests, since death prevented them from continuing in office.
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.
Therefore He is able to save completely those who draw near to God through Him, since He always lives to
intercede for them.
For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law:
Now if He were on earth, He would not be a priest, since there are already priests who offer gifts according to the law.
For
there was a tabernacle made; the first, wherein was the
candlestick, and the table, and the
shewbread; which is called the sanctuary.
A tabernacle was prepared. In its first room were the lampstand, the table, and the consecrated bread. This was called the Holy Place.
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.
Therefore Christ is the
mediator of a new covenant, so that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance, now that He has died to
redeem them from the transgressions committed under the first covenant.
For where a testament is,
there must also of necessity be the death of the
testator.
In the case of a will, it is necessary to establish the death of the one who made it,
And almost all things are by the law
purged with blood; and without
shedding of blood is no remission.
According to the law, in fact, nearly everything must be
purified with blood, and without the
shedding of blood
there is no
forgiveness.
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.
So it was necessary for the copies of the heavenly things to be
purified with these sacrifices, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
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.
For the law is only a shadow of the good things to come, not the
realities themselves. It can never, by the same sacrifices offered year after year, make perfect those who draw near to worship.
But in those sacrifices
there is a
remembrance again made of sins every year.
Instead, those sacrifices are an annual reminder of sins,
Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me:
Therefore, when Christ came into the world, He said: “Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but a body You prepared for Me.
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;
In the passage above He says, “Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings You did not desire, nor did You delight in them” (although they are offered according to the law).
Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
And where these have been
forgiven, an offering for sin is no longer needed.
Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,
Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus,
For if we sin
wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth,
there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
If we
deliberately go on
sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no further sacrifice for sins remains,
Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.
So do not throw away your confidence; it holds a great reward.
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.
And so from one man, and he as good as dead, came descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as countless as the sand on the
seashore.
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.
Instead, they were longing for a better country, a heavenly one.
Therefore God is not
ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.
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,
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off every
encumbrance and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with
endurance the race set out for us.
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.
No discipline seems enjoyable at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it yields a harvest of righteousness and peace to those who have been trained by it.
Wherefore lift up the hands which
hang down, and the feeble knees;
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;
See to it that no one falls short of the grace of God, and that no root of bitterness springs up to cause trouble and
defile many.
See to it that no one is sexually immoral, or is godless like
Esau, who for a single meal sold his
birthright.
Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God
acceptably with reverence and godly fear:
Be not
forgetful to
entertain strangers: for
thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
Do not neglect to show
hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it.
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.
Do not be carried away by all kinds of strange teachings, for it is good for the heart to be strengthened by grace and not by foods of no value to those devoted to them.
Let us go forth therefore unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach.
Therefore let us go to Him outside the camp, bearing the disgrace He bore.
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.
Through Jesus,
therefore, let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise, the fruit of lips that
confess His name.
For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withereth the grass, and the flower
thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man
fade away in his ways.
For the sun rises with
scorching heat and
withers the plant; its flower falls and its beauty is lost. So too, the rich man will
fade away in the midst of his pursuits.
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, with whom
there is no change or
shifting shadow.
Therefore, get rid of all moral
filth and every expression of evil, and
humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save your souls.
But
whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth
therein, he being not a
forgetful hearer, but a
doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
But the one who looks intently into the perfect law of freedom, and continues to do so—not being a
forgetful hearer, but an effective
doer—he will be blessed in what he does.
For if
there come unto your assembly a man with a gold ring, in goodly
apparel, and
there come in also a poor man in
vile raiment;
Suppose a man comes into your meeting wearing a gold ring and fine clothes, and a poor man in
shabby clothes also comes in.
And ye have respect to him that weareth the gay clothing, and say unto him, Sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand thou
there, or sit here under my
footstool:
If you
lavish attention on the man in fine clothes and say, “Here is a seat of honor,” but say to the poor man, “You must stand” or “Sit at my feet,”
Thou believest that
there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and
tremble.
You believe that God is one. Good for you! Even the demons believe that—and
shudder.
With the tongue we
bless our Lord and Father, and with it we
curse men, who have been made in God’s likeness.
For where
envying and
strife is,
there is confusion and every evil work.
For where jealousy and
selfish ambition exist,
there will be disorder and every evil practice.
Ye adulterers and adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is
enmity with God?
whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
You adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is hostility toward God?
Therefore,
whoever chooses to be a friend of the world renders himself an enemy of God.
Submit
yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will
flee from you.
Submit
yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will
flee from you.
There is one
lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy: who art thou that judgest another?
There is only one
Lawgiver and Judge, the One who is able to save and destroy. But who are you to judge your
neighbor?
Go to now, ye that say, To day or to
morrow we will go into such a city, and continue
there a year, and
buy and sell, and get gain:
Come now, you who say, “
Today or
tomorrow we will go to this or that city,
spend a year
there, carry on business, and make a profit.”
Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.
Anyone, then, who knows the right thing to do, yet fails to do it, is guilty of sin.
Be patient
therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the
husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long
patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain.
Be patient, then, brothers, until the Lord’s coming. See how the farmer awaits the precious fruit of the soil—how patient he is for the fall and spring rains.
Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be
healed. The
effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be
healed. The prayer of a righteous man has great power to prevail.

gird up the loins of your mind, be
sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;

sober-minded. Set your hope fully on the grace to be given you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
For all flesh is as grass, and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away:
For, “All flesh is like grass, and all its glory like the flowers of the field; the grass
withers and the flowers fall,
As
newborn babes, desire the
sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow
thereby:
Like
newborn babies,
crave pure spiritual milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation,
Unto you
therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be
disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,
To you who believe, then, this stone is precious. But to those who do not believe, “The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone,”
Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but
contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are
thereunto called, that ye should
inherit a blessing.
Do not repay evil with evil or
insult with
insult, but with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may
inherit a blessing.
Forasmuch then as Christ hath suffered for us in the flesh, arm
yourselves likewise with the same mind: for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin;

thereof, not by
constraint, but willingly; not for
filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;

shepherds of God’s flock that is among you, watching over them not out of

greed, but out of eagerness;

yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may
exalt you in due time:

diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:

negligent to put you always in
remembrance of these things, though ye know them, and be established in the present truth.

For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
For He received honor and glory from God the Father when the voice came to Him from the
Majestic Glory, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
But
there were false prophets also among the people, even as
there shall be false teachers among you, who
privily shall bring in
damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.
Now
there were also false prophets among the people, just as
there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive
heresies, even denying the Master who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves.
For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again
entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.
If indeed they have escaped the corruption of the world through the knowledge of our Lord and
Savior Jesus Christ, only to be
entangled and overcome by it again, their final condition is worse than it was at first.
Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,

thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall
melt with
fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are
therein shall be burned up.

thief. The heavens will disappear with a
roar, the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and its works will be laid bare.
