Hebrews 12
12Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,G5105G2532G2192G4029G2254G5118G3509G3144G659G2249G659G3956G3591G2532G266G2139G5143G1223G5281G73G4295G22542looking 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 has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.G872G1519G2424G747G2532G5051G4102G3739G473G5479G4295G846G5278G4716G2706G152G5037G2523G1722G1188G2362G23163For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, lest you become weary and discouraged in your souls.G1063G357G5278G5108G485G5259G268G1519G846G3363G2577G1590G5216G55904You have not yet resisted to bloodshed, striving against sin.G478G3768G478G3360G129G464G4314G2665And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons: "My son, do not despise the chastening of the LORD, Nor be discouraged when you are rebuked by Him;G2532G1585G3874G3748G1256G5213G5613G5207G3450G5207G3643G3361G3643G3809G2962G3366G1590G1651G5259G8466For whom the LORD loves He chastens, And scourges every son whom He receives."G1063G3739G2962G25G3811G1161G3146G3956G5207G3739G38587If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not chasten?G1487G5278G3809G2316G4374G5213G5613G5207G1063G5101G5207G2076G3739G3962G3811G37568But if you are without chastening, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate and not sons.G1161G1487G2075G5565G3809G3739G3956G1096G3353G686G2075G3541G2532G3756G52079Furthermore, we have had human fathers who corrected us, and we paid them respect. Shall we not much more readily be in subjection to the Father of spirits and live?G1534G3303G2192G3962G2257G4561G3810G2532G1788G5293G3756G4183G3123G5293G3962G4151G2532G219810For they indeed for a few days chastened us as seemed best to them, but He for our profit, that we may be partakers of His holiness.G1063G3303G4314G3641G2250G3811G2596G846G1380G1161G1909G4851G1519G3335G846G4111Now no chastening seems to be joyful for the present, but painful; nevertheless, afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.G1161G3956G3756G3809G4314G3303G3918G1380G1511G5479G235G3077G1161G5305G591G1516G2590G1343G1128G1223G84612Therefore strengthen the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees,G1352G461G5495G3935G2532G3886G111913and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be dislocated, but rather be healed.G2532G4160G3717G5163G5216G4228G3363G5560G1624G1161G2390G3123G239014Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord:G1377G1515G3326G3956G2532G38G5565G3739G3762G3700G296215looking carefully lest anyone fall short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up cause trouble, and by this many become defiled;G1983G3361G5100G5302G575G5485G2316G3361G5100G4491G4088G5453G507G1776G2532G1223G5026G4183G339216lest there be any fornicator or profane person like Esau, who for one morsel of food sold his birthright.G3361G5100G4205G2228G952G5613G2269G3739G473G3391G1035G591G846G441517For you know that afterward, when he wanted to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for repentance, though he sought it diligently with tears.G1063G2467G3754G2532G3347G2309G2816G2129G593G1063G2147G3756G5117G3341G2539G1567G846G1567G3326G114418For you have not come to the mountain that may be touched and that burned with fire, and to blackness and darkness and tempest,G1063G4334G3756G4334G3735G5584G2532G2545G4442G2532G1105G2532G4655G2532G236619and the sound of a trumpet and the voice of words, so that those who heard it begged that the word should not be spoken to them anymore.G2532G2279G4536G2532G5456G4487G3739G191G3868G3056G4369G3361G4369G846G336120(For they could not endure what was commanded: "And if so much as a beast touches the mountain, it shall be stoned or shot with an arrow."G1063G5342G3756G5342G1291G2579G2342G2345G3735G3036G2228G2700G100221And so terrifying was the sight that Moses said, "I am exceedingly afraid and trembling.")G2532G3779G5398G2258G5324G3475G2036G1630G1510G2532G179022But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, to an innumerable company of angels,G235G4334G3735G4622G2532G4172G2198G2316G2032G2419G2532G3461G3223to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are registered in heaven, to God the Judge of all, to the spirits of just men made perfect,G3831G2532G1577G4416G583G1722G3772G2532G2316G2923G3956G2532G4151G1342G504824to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than that of Abel.G2532G2424G3316G3501G1242G2532G129G4473G2980G2909G3844G625See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For if they did not escape who refused Him who spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven,G991G3868G3361G2980G1063G1487G1565G5343G3756G3868G5537G1909G1093G4183G3123G2249G654G575G377226whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, "Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also heaven."G3739G5456G5119G4531G1093G1161G3568G1861G3004G2089G530G1473G4579G3756G1093G3440G235G2532G377227Now this, "Yet once more," indicates the removal of those things that are being shaken, as of things that are made, that the things which cannot be shaken may remain.G1161G2089G530G1213G3331G4531G5613G4160G2443G3361G4531G330628Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear.G1352G3880G932G761G2192G5485G1223G3739G3000G2316G2102G3326G127G2532G212429For our God is a consuming fire.G2532G1063G2257G2316G2654G4442
