WhereforeG5105 seeing we alsoG2532 areG2192 compassed aboutG4029+G2254 with so greatG5118 a cloudG3509 of witnessesG3144, letG659 usG2249 lay asideG659 everyG3956 weightG3591, andG2532 the sinG266 which doth so easily besetG2139 us, and let us runG5143 withG1223 patienceG5281 the raceG73 that is set beforeG4295 usG2254,
LookingG872 untoG1519 JesusG2424 the authorG747 andG2532 finisherG5051 of our faithG4102; whoG3739 forG473 the joyG5479 that was set beforeG4295 himG846 enduredG5278 the crossG4716, despisingG2706 the shameG152, andG5037 is set downG2523 atG1722 the right handG1188 of the throneG2362 of GodG2316. {author: or, beginner}
ForG1063 considerG357 him that enduredG5278 suchG5108 contradictionG485 ofG5259 sinnersG268 againstG1519 himselfG846, lestG3363 ye be weariedG2577 and faintG1590 in yourG5216 mindsG5590.
Ye haveG478 not yetG3768 resistedG478 untoG3360 bloodG129, strivingG464 againstG4314 sinG266.
AndG2532 ye have forgottenG1585 the exhortationG3874 whichG3748 speakethG1256 unto youG5213 asG5613 unto childrenG5207, MyG3450 sonG5207, despiseG3643 notG3361 thouG3643 the chasteningG3809 of the LordG2962, norG3366 faintG1590 when thou art rebukedG1651 ofG5259 himG846:
ForG1063 whomG3739 the LordG2962 lovethG25 he chastenethG3811, andG1161 scourgethG3146 everyG3956 sonG5207 whomG3739 he receivethG3858.
IfG1487 ye endureG5278 chasteningG3809, GodG2316 dealethG4374 with youG5213 asG5613 with sonsG5207; forG1063 whatG5101 sonG5207 is heG2076 whomG3739 the fatherG3962 chastenethG3811 notG3756?
ButG1161 ifG1487 ye beG2075 withoutG5565 chastisementG3809, whereofG3739 allG3956 areG1096 partakersG3353, thenG686 are yeG2075 bastardsG3541, andG2532 notG3756 sonsG5207.
FurthermoreG1534+G3303 we have hadG2192 fathersG3962 of ourG2257 fleshG4561 which correctedG3810 us, andG2532 we gave them reverenceG1788: shall weG5293 notG3756 muchG4183 ratherG3123 be in subjectionG5293 unto the FatherG3962 of spiritsG4151, andG2532 liveG2198?
ForG1063 they verilyG3303 forG4314 a fewG3641 daysG2250 chastenedG3811 us afterG2596 their ownG846 pleasureG1380; butG1161 he forG1909 our profitG4851, thatG1519 we might be partakersG3335 of hisG846 holinessG41. {after…: or, as seemed good, or, meet to them}
NowG1161 noG3956+G3756 chasteningG3809 forG4314+G3303 the presentG3918 seemethG1380 to beG1511 joyousG5479, butG235 grievousG3077: neverthelessG1161 afterwardG5305 it yieldethG591 the peaceableG1516 fruitG2590 of righteousnessG1343 unto them which are exercisedG1128 therebyG1223+G846.
WhereforeG1352 lift upG461 the handsG5495 which hang downG3935, andG2532 the feebleG3886 kneesG1119;
AndG2532 makeG4160 straightG3717 pathsG5163 for yourG5216 feetG4228, lest thatG3363 which is lameG5560 be turned out of the wayG1624; butG1161 let itG2390 ratherG3123 be healedG2390. {straight: or, even}
FollowG1377 peaceG1515 withG3326 allG3956 men, andG2532 holinessG38, withoutG5565 whichG3739 no manG3762 shall seeG3700 the LordG2962:
Looking diligentlyG1983 lestG3361 any manG5100 failG5302 ofG575 the graceG5485 of GodG2316; lestG3361 anyG5100 rootG4491 of bitternessG4088 springingG5453 upG507 troubleG1776 you, andG2532 therebyG1223+G5026 manyG4183 be defiledG3392; {fail…: or, fall from}
LestG3361 there be anyG5100 fornicatorG4205, orG2228 profane personG952, asG5613 EsauG2269, whoG3739 forG473 oneG3391 morsel of meatG1035 soldG591 hisG846 birthrightG4415.
ForG1063 ye knowG2467 howG3754 that afterwardG2532+G3347, when he wouldG2309 have inheritedG2816 the blessingG2129, he was rejectedG593: forG1063 he foundG2147 noG3756 placeG5117 of repentanceG3341, thoughG2539 he soughtG1567 itG846 carefullyG1567 withG3326 tearsG1144. {place…: or, way to change his mind}
ForG1063 ye areG4334 notG3756 comeG4334 unto the mountG3735 that might be touchedG5584, andG2532 that burnedG2545 with fireG4442, norG2532 unto blacknessG1105, andG2532 darknessG4655, andG2532 tempestG2366,
AndG2532 the soundG2279 of a trumpetG4536, andG2532 the voiceG5456 of wordsG4487; whichG3739 voice they that heardG191 intreatedG3868 that the wordG3056 shouldG4369 notG3361 be spokenG4369 to themG846 any moreG3361:
(ForG1063 they couldG5342 notG3756 endureG5342 that which was commandedG1291, And if so much asG2579 a beastG2342 touchG2345 the mountainG3735, it shall be stonedG3036, orG2228 thrust throughG2700 with a dartG1002:
AndG2532 soG3779 terribleG5398 wasG2258 the sightG5324, that MosesG3475 saidG2036, I exceedingly fearG1630+G1510 andG2532 quakeG1790:)
ButG235 ye are comeG4334 unto mountG3735 SionG4622, andG2532 unto the cityG4172 of the livingG2198 GodG2316, the heavenlyG2032 JerusalemG2419, andG2532 to an innumerable companyG3461 of angelsG32,
To the general assemblyG3831 andG2532 churchG1577 of the firstbornG4416, which are writtenG583 inG1722 heavenG3772, andG2532 to GodG2316 the JudgeG2923 of allG3956, andG2532 to the spiritsG4151 of just menG1342 made perfectG5048, {written: or, enrolled}
AndG2532 to JesusG2424 the mediatorG3316 of the newG3501 covenantG1242, andG2532 to the bloodG129 of sprinklingG4473, that speakethG2980 better thingsG2909 thanG3844 that of AbelG6. {covenant: or, testament}
SeeG991 that ye refuseG3868 notG3361 him that speakethG2980. ForG1063 ifG1487 theyG1565 escapedG5343 notG3756 who refused himG3868 that spakeG5537 onG1909 earthG1093, muchG4183 moreG3123 shall not weG2249 escape, if we turn away from himG654 that speaketh fromG575 heavenG3772:
WhoseG3739 voiceG5456 thenG5119 shookG4531 the earthG1093: butG1161 nowG3568 he hath promisedG1861, sayingG3004, YetG2089 once moreG530 IG1473 shakeG4579 notG3756 the earthG1093 onlyG3440, butG235 alsoG2532 heavenG3772.
AndG1161 this word, YetG2089 once moreG530, signifiethG1213 the removingG3331 of those things that are shakenG4531, asG5613 of things that are madeG4160, thatG2443 those things which cannotG3361 be shakenG4531 may remainG3306. {are shaken: or, may be shaken}
WhereforeG1352 we receivingG3880 a kingdomG932 which cannot be movedG761, let us haveG2192 graceG5485, wherebyG1223+G3739 we may serveG3000 GodG2316 acceptablyG2102 withG3326 reverenceG127 andG2532 godly fearG2124: {let…: or, let us hold fast}
ForG2532+G1063 ourG2257 GodG2316 is a consumingG2654 fireG4442.

GodH410 is greatlyH7227 to be fearedH6206 in the assemblyH5475 of the saintsH6918, and to be had in reverenceH3372 of all them that are aboutH5439 him.
And thou shalt sayH559 unto PharaohH6547, Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, IsraelH3478 is my sonH1121, even my firstbornH1060:
Yet now, if thou wilt forgiveH5375 their sinH2403--; and if not, blotH4229 me, I pray thee, out of thy bookH5612 which thou hast writtenH3789.
ForG1063 GodG2316 is notG3756 unrighteousG94 to forgetG1950 yourG5216 workG2041 andG2532 labourG2873 of loveG26, whichG3739 ye have shewedG1731 towardG1519 hisG846 nameG3686, in that ye have ministeredG1247 to the saintsG40, andG2532 do ministerG1247.
AndG1161 we desireG1937 that every oneG1538 of youG5216 do shewG1731 the sameG846 diligenceG4710 toG4314 the full assuranceG4136 of hopeG1680 untoG891 the endG5056:
ThatG3363 ye beG1096 notG3363 slothfulG3576, butG1161 followersG3402 of them who throughG1223 faithG4102 andG2532 patienceG3115 inheritG2816 the promisesG1860.
By faithG4102 AbelG6 offeredG4374 unto GodG2316 a more excellentG4119 sacrificeG2378 thanG3844 CainG2535, byG1223 whichG3739 he obtained witnessG3140 that he wasG1511 righteousG1342, GodG2316 testifyingG3140 ofG1909 hisG846 giftsG1435: andG2532 byG1223 itG846 he being deadG599 yetG2089 speakethG2980. {yet…: or, is yet spoken of}
PraiseH1984 ye the LORDH3050. I will praiseH3034 the LORDH3068 with my whole heartH3824, in the assemblyH5475 of the uprightH3477, and in the congregationH5712. {Praise ye…: Heb. Hallelujah}
SanctifyH6942 unto me all the firstbornH1060, whatsoever openethH6363 the wombH7358 among the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, both of manH120 and of beastH929: it is mine.
Let them be blottedH4229 out of the bookH5612 of the livingH2416, and not be writtenH3789 with the righteousH6662.
AndG2532 asG2596+G3745 it is appointedG606 unto menG444 onceG530 to dieG599, butG1161 afterG3326 thisG5124 the judgmentG2920:
GodG2316 having providedG4265 someG5100 betterG2909 thingG5100 forG4012 usG2257, thatG3363 theyG5048 withoutG5565 usG2257 shouldG5048 notG3363 be made perfectG5048. {provided: or, foreseen}
Take heedG4337 thereforeG3767 unto yourselvesG1438, andG2532 to allG3956 the flockG4168, overG1722 the whichG3739 the HolyG40 GhostG4151 hath madeG5087 youG5209 overseersG1985, to feedG4165 the churchG1577 of GodG2316, whichG3739 he hath purchasedG4046 withG1223 his ownG2398 bloodG129.
But he shall acknowledgeH5234 the sonH1121 of the hatedH8130 for the firstbornH1060, by givingH5414 him a doubleH8147 portionH6310 of all that he hathH4672: for he is the beginningH7225 of his strengthH202; the rightH4941 of the firstbornH1062 is his. {that…: Heb. that is found with him}
NotwithstandingG4133 inG1722 thisG5129 rejoiceG5463 notG3361, thatG3754 the spiritsG4151 are subjectG5293 unto youG5213; butG1161 ratherG3123 rejoiceG5463, becauseG3754 yourG5216 namesG3686 are writtenG1125 inG1722 heavenG3772.
That be farH2486 from thee to doH6213 after this mannerH1697, to slayH4191 the righteousH6662 with the wickedH7563: and that the righteousH6662 should be as the wickedH7563, that be farH2486 from thee: Shall not the JudgeH8199 of all the earthH776 doH6213 rightH4941?
Then shall the dustH6083 returnH7725 to the earthH776 as it was: and the spiritH7307 shall returnH7725 unto GodH430 who gaveH5414 it.
AndG2532 hath putG5293 allG3956 things underG5259 hisG846 feetG4228, andG2532 gaveG1325 himG846 to be the headG2776 overG5228 allG3956 things to the churchG1577,
AndG2532 I intreatG2065 theeG4571 alsoG2532, trueG1103 yokefellowG4805, helpG4815 those womenG846 whichG3748 labouredG4866 with meG3427 inG1722 the gospelG2098, withG3326 ClementG2815 alsoG2532, andG2532 with otherG3062 myG3450 fellowlabourersG4904, whoseG3739 namesG3686 are inG1722 the bookG976 of lifeG2222.
GatherH622 my saintsH2623 together unto me; those that have madeH3772 a covenantH1285 with me by sacrificeH2077.
ForG1063 nowG737 we seeG991 throughG1223 a glassG2072, darklyG1722+G135; butG1161 thenG5119 faceG4383 toG4314 faceG4383: nowG737 I knowG1097 inG1537 partG3313; butG1161 thenG5119 shall I knowG1921 even asG2531 alsoG2532 I am knownG1921. {darkly: Gr. in a riddle}
ThereforeG235 asG5618 the churchG1577 is subjectG5293 unto ChristG5547, soG3779+G2532 let the wivesG1135 be to their ownG2398 husbandsG435 inG1722 every thingG3956.
HusbandsG435, loveG25 yourG1438 wivesG1135, even asG2531 ChristG5547 alsoG2532 lovedG25 the churchG1577, andG2532 gaveG3860 himselfG1438 forG5228 itG846;
ThatG2443 heG846 might sanctifyG37 and cleanse itG2511 with the washingG3067 of waterG5204 byG1722 the wordG4487,
ThatG2443 he might presentG3936 itG846 to himselfG1438 a gloriousG1741 churchG1577, notG3361 havingG2192 spotG4696, orG2228 wrinkleG4512, orG2228 anyG5100 such thingG5108; butG235 thatG2443 it should beG5600 holyG40 andG2532 without blemishG299.
They shall comeH935 with weepingH1065, and with supplicationsH8469 will I leadH2986 them: I will cause them to walkH3212 by the riversH5158 of watersH4325 in a straightH3477 wayH1870, wherein they shall not stumbleH3782: for I am a fatherH1 to IsraelH3478, and EphraimH669 is my firstbornH1060. {supplications: or, favours}
AndG2532 allG3956 that dwellG2730 uponG1909 the earthG1093 shall worshipG4352 himG846, whoseG3739 namesG3686 areG1125 notG3756 writtenG1125 inG1722 the bookG976 of lifeG2222 of the LambG721 slainG4969 fromG575 the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889.
And the heavensH8064 shall declareH5046 his righteousnessH6664: for GodH430 is judgeH8199 himself. SelahH5542.
AndG2532 asG2531 we have borneG5409 the imageG1504 of the earthyG5517, we shallG5409 alsoG2532 bearG5409 the imageG1504 of the heavenlyG2032.
WhoG3739 nowG3568 rejoiceG5463 inG1722 myG3450 sufferingsG3804 forG5228 youG5216, andG2532 fill upG466 that which is behindG5303 of the afflictionsG2347 of ChristG5547 inG1722 myG3450 fleshG4561 forG5228 hisG846 body'sG4983 sakeG5228, which isG3603 the churchG1577:
Of his own willG1014 begat heG616 usG2248 with the wordG3056 of truthG225, thatG1519 weG2248 should beG1511 a kindG5100 of firstfruitsG536 of hisG846 creaturesG2938.
AndG2532 whosoeverG1536 wasG2147 notG3756 foundG2147 writtenG1125 inG1722 the bookG976 of lifeG2222 was castG906 intoG1519 the lakeG3041 of fireG4442.
Lift upH5375 thyself, thou judgeH8199 of the earthH776: renderH7725 a rewardH1576 to the proudH1343.
SoG1161 whenG3752 thisG5124 corruptibleG5349 shall have put onG1746 incorruptionG861, andG2532 thisG5124 mortalG2349 shall have put onG1746 immortalityG110, thenG5119 shall be brought to passG1096 the sayingG3056 that is writtenG1125, DeathG2288 is swallowed upG2666 inG1519 victoryG3534.
(ForG1161 if a manG1536 knowG1492 notG3756 howG1492 to ruleG4291 his ownG2398 houseG3624, howG4459 shall he take care ofG1959 the churchG1577 of GodG2316?)
TheseG3778 are theyG1526 whichG3739 wereG3435 notG3756 defiledG3435 withG3326 womenG1135; forG1063 they areG1526 virginsG3933. TheseG3778 are theyG1526 whichG3588 followG190 the LambG721 whithersoeverG3699+G302 he goethG5217. TheseG3778 were redeemedG59 fromG575 among menG444, being the firstfruitsG536 unto GodG2316 andG2532 to the LambG721. {redeemed: Gr. bought}
BeforeH6440 the LORDH3068: for he comethH935, for he comethH935 to judgeH8199 the earthH776: he shall judgeH8199 the worldH8398 with righteousnessH6664, and the peopleH5971 with his truthH530.
We are confidentG2292, I say, andG1161+G2532 willingG2106 ratherG3123 to be absentG1553 fromG1537 the bodyG4983, andG2532 to be presentG1736 withG4314 the LordG2962.
BeforeH6440 the LORDH3068; for he comethH935 to judgeH8199 the earthH776: with righteousnessH6664 shall he judgeH8199 the worldH8398, and the peopleH5971 with equityH4339.
ForG1063 to meG1698 to liveG2198 is ChristG5547, andG2532 to dieG599 is gainG2771.
ButG1161 ifG1487 I liveG2198 inG1722 the fleshG4561, thisG5124 is the fruitG2590 of my labourG2041+G3427: yetG2532 whatG5101 I shall chooseG138 I wotG1107 notG3756.
ForG1063 I am in a straitG4912 betwixtG1537 twoG1417, havingG2192 a desireG1939 toG1519 departG360, andG2532 to beG1511 withG4862 ChristG5547; which is farG4183+G3123 betterG2908:
WhenG1161+G3752 the SonG5207 of manG444 shall comeG2064 inG1722 hisG846 gloryG1391, andG2532 allG3956 the holyG40 angelsG32 withG3326 himG846, thenG5119 shall he sitG2523 uponG1909 the throneG2362 of hisG846 gloryG1391:
AndG2532 beforeG1715 himG846 shall be gatheredG4863 allG3956 nationsG1484: andG2532 he shall separateG873 themG846 oneG240 fromG575 anotherG240, asG5618 a shepherdG4166 dividethG873 his sheepG4263 fromG575 the goatsG2056:
AndG2532 he shall setG2476+G3303 the sheepG4263 onG1537 hisG846 right handG1188, butG1161 the goatsG2055 onG1537 the leftG2176.
ThenG5119 shall the KingG935 sayG2046 unto them onG1537 hisG846 right handG1188, ComeG1205, ye blessedG2127 of myG3450 FatherG3962, inheritG2816 the kingdomG932 preparedG2090 for youG5213 fromG575 the foundationG2602 of the worldG2889:
NotG3756 as thoughG3754 I had alreadyG2235 attainedG2983, eitherG2228 were alreadyG2235 perfectG5048: butG1161 I follow afterG1377, ifG1499 that I may apprehendG2638 that forG1909 whichG3739 alsoG2532 I am apprehendedG2638 ofG5259 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
BrethrenG80, IG1473 countG3049 notG3756 myselfG1683 to have apprehendedG2638: butG1161 this one thingG1520 I do, forgettingG1950 those thingsG3303 which are behindG3694, andG1161 reaching forth untoG1901 those things which are beforeG1715,
I pressG1377 towardG2596 the markG4649 forG1909 the prizeG1017 of the highG507 callingG2821 of GodG2316 inG1722 ChristG5547 JesusG2424.
LetG5426 us thereforeG3767, as many asG3745 be perfectG5046, beG5426 thusG5124 mindedG5426: andG2532 if in any thingG1536 ye beG5426 otherwiseG2088 mindedG5426, GodG2316 shall revealG601 evenG2532 thisG5124 unto youG5213.
NeverthelessG4133, wheretoG1519+G3739 we have already attainedG5348, let us walkG4748 by the sameG846 ruleG2583, let us mindG5426 the same thingG846.
BrethrenG80, beG1096 followers togetherG4831 of meG3450, andG2532 markG4648 them which walkG4043 soG3779 asG2531 ye haveG2192 usG2248 for an ensampleG5179.
(ForG1063 manyG4183 walkG4043, of whomG3739 I have toldG3004 youG5213 oftenG4178, andG1161 nowG3568 tellG3004 you evenG2532 weepingG2799, that they are the enemiesG2190 of the crossG4716 of ChristG5547:
WhoseG3739 endG5056 is destructionG684, whoseG3739 GodG2316 is their bellyG2836, andG2532 whose gloryG1391 is inG1722 theirG846 shameG152, whoG3588 mindG5426 earthly thingsG1919.)
ForG1063 ourG2257 conversationG4175 isG5225 inG1722 heavenG3772; fromG1537 whenceG3739 alsoG2532 we look forG553 the SaviourG4990, the LordG2962 JesusG2424 ChristG5547: {conversation…: or, we live or conduct ourselves as citizens of heaven, or, for obtaining heaven}
WhoG3739 shall changeG3345 ourG2257 vileG5014 bodyG4983, thatG1519 itG846 may beG1096 fashioned like untoG4832 hisG846 gloriousG1391 bodyG4983, according toG2596 the workingG1753 whereby heG846 is ableG1410 evenG2532 to subdueG5293 all thingsG3956 unto himselfG1438.
AndG2532 hath givenG1325 himG846 authorityG1849 to executeG4160 judgmentG2920 alsoG2532, becauseG3754 he isG2076 the SonG5207 of manG444.
Giving thanksG2168 unto the FatherG3962, whichG3588 hath madeG2427 usG2248 meetG2427 toG1519 be partakersG3310 of the inheritanceG2819 of the saintsG40 inG1722 lightG5457:
Which is a manifest tokenG1730 of the righteousG1342 judgmentG2920 of GodG2316, thatG1519 yeG5209 may be counted worthyG2661 of the kingdomG932 of GodG2316, forG5228 whichG3739 yeG3958 alsoG2532 sufferG3958:
SeeingG1512 it is a righteous thingG1342 withG3844 GodG2316 to recompenseG467 tribulationG2347 to them that troubleG2346 youG5209;
AndG2532 to youG5213 who are troubledG2346 restG425 withG3326 usG2257, whenG1722 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 shall be revealedG602 fromG575 heavenG3772 withG3326 hisG846 mightyG1411 angelsG32, {his…: Gr. the angels of his power}
AndG2532 I saidG2046 unto himG846, SirG2962, thouG4771 knowestG1492. AndG2532 he saidG2036 to meG3427, TheseG3778 are theyG1526 which cameG2064 out ofG1537 greatG3173 tribulationG2347, andG2532 have washedG4150 theirG846 robesG4749, andG2532 madeG3021 themG4749+G846 whiteG3021 inG1722 the bloodG129 of the LambG721.
ThereforeG1223+G5124 are theyG1526 beforeG1799 the throneG2362 of GodG2316, andG2532 serveG3000 himG846 dayG2250 andG2532 nightG3571 inG1722 hisG846 templeG3485: andG2532 he that sittethG2521 onG1909 the throneG2362 shall dwellG4637 amongG1909 themG846.
They shall hungerG3983 noG3756 moreG2089, neitherG3761 thirstG1372 any moreG2089; neitherG3761+G3361 shallG4098 the sunG2246 lightG4098 onG1909 themG846, norG3761 anyG3956 heatG2738.
ForG3754 the LambG721 whichG3588 is in the midstG303+G3319 of the throneG2362 shall feedG4165 themG846, andG2532 shall leadG3594 themG846 untoG1909 livingG2198 fountainsG4077 of watersG5204: andG2532 GodG2316 shall wipe awayG1813 allG3956 tearsG1144 fromG575 theirG846 eyesG3788.
