Hebrews 12
New International Version (1984) Help
12Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.G5105G2532G2192G4029G2254G5118G3509G3144G659G2249G659G3956G3591G2532G266G2139G5143G1223G5281G73G4295G2254
2Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.G872G1519G2424G747G2532G5051G4102G3739G473G5479G4295G846G5278G4716G2706G152G5037G2523G1722G1188G2362G2316
3Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.G1063G357G5278G5108G485G5259G268G1519G846G3363G2577G1590G5216G5590
4In your struggle against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood.G478G3768G478G3360G129G464G4314G266
5And you have forgotten that word of encouragement that addresses you as sons: "My son, do not make light of the Lord's discipline, and do not lose heart when he rebukes you,G2532G1585G3874G3748G1256G5213G5613G5207G3450G5207G3643G3361G3643G3809G2962G3366G1590G1651G5259G846
6because the Lord disciplines those he loves, and he punishes everyone he accepts as a son."G1063G3739G2962G25G3811G1161G3146G3956G5207G3739G3858
7Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as sons. For what son is not disciplined by his father?G1487G5278G3809G2316G4374G5213G5613G5207G1063G5101G5207G2076G3739G3962G3811G3756
8If you are not disciplined (and everyone undergoes discipline), then you are illegitimate children and not true sons.G1161G1487G2075G5565G3809G3739G3956G1096G3353G686G2075G3541G2532G3756G5207
9Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of our spirits and live!G1534G3303G2192G3962G2257G4561G3810G2532G1788G5293G3756G4183G3123G5293G3962G4151G2532G2198
10Our fathers disciplined us for a little while as they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, that we may share in his holiness.G1063G3303G4314G3641G2250G3811G2596G846G1380G1161G1909G4851G1519G3335G846G41
11No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.G1161G3956G3756G3809G4314G3303G3918G1380G1511G5479G235G3077G1161G5305G591G1516G2590G1343G1128G1223G846
12Therefore, strengthen your feeble arms and weak knees.G1352G461G5495G3935G2532G3886G1119
13"Make level paths for your feet," so that the lame may not be disabled, but rather healed.G2532G4160G3717G5163G5216G4228G3363G5560G1624G1161G2390G3123G2390
14Make every effort to live in peace with all men and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord.G1377G1515G3326G3956G2532G38G5565G3739G3762G3700G2962
15See to it that no one misses the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many.G1983G3361G5100G5302G575G5485G2316G3361G5100G4491G4088G5453G507G1776G2532G1223G5026G4183G3392
16See that no one is sexually immoral, or is godless like Esau, who for a single meal sold his inheritance rights as the oldest son.G3361G5100G4205G2228G952G5613G2269G3739G473G3391G1035G591G846G4415
17Afterward, as you know, when he wanted to inherit this blessing, he was rejected. He could bring about no change of mind, though he sought the blessing with tears.G1063G2467G3754G2532G3347G2309G2816G2129G593G1063G2147G3756G5117G3341G2539G1567G846G1567G3326G1144
18You have not come to a mountain that can be touched and that is burning with fire; to darkness, gloom and storm;G1063G4334G3756G4334G3735G5584G2532G2545G4442G2532G1105G2532G4655G2532G2366
19to a trumpet blast or to such a voice speaking words that those who heard it begged that no further word be spoken to them,G2532G2279G4536G2532G5456G4487G3739G191G3868G3056G4369G3361G4369G846G3361
20because they could not bear what was commanded: "If even an animal touches the mountain, it must be stoned."G1063G5342G3756G5342G1291G2579G2342G2345G3735G3036G2228G2700G1002
21The sight was so terrifying that Moses said, "I am trembling with fear."G2532G3779G5398G2258G5324G3475G2036G1630G1510G2532G1790
22But you have come to Mount Zion, to the heavenly Jerusalem, the city of the living God. You have come to thousands upon thousands of angels in joyful assembly,G235G4334G3735G4622G2532G4172G2198G2316G2032G2419G2532G3461G32
23to the church of the firstborn, whose names are written in heaven. You have come to God, the judge of all men, to the spirits of righteous men made perfect,G3831G2532G1577G4416G583G1722G3772G2532G2316G2923G3956G2532G4151G1342G5048
24to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel.G2532G2424G3316G3501G1242G2532G129G4473G2980G2909G3844G6
25See to it that you do not refuse him who speaks. If they did not escape when they refused him who warned them on earth, how much less will we, if we turn away from him who warns us from heaven?G991G3868G3361G2980G1063G1487G1565G5343G3756G3868G5537G1909G1093G4183G3123G2249G654G575G3772
26At that time his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, "Once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens."G3739G5456G5119G4531G1093G1161G3568G1861G3004G2089G530G1473G4579G3756G1093G3440G235G2532G3772
27The words "once more" indicate the removing of what can be shaken--that is, created things--so that what cannot be shaken may remain.G1161G2089G530G1213G3331G4531G5613G4160G2443G3361G4531G3306
28Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe,G1352G3880G932G761G2192G5485G1223G3739G3000G2316G2102G3326G127G2532G2124
29for our "God is a consuming fire."G2532G1063G2257G2316G2654G4442
