Hebrews 12:10 — Hebrews 12:29

10 For they disciplined for a few days as it seemed good to them; but He, for what is profitable that we might partake of His ^1aholiness.

11 Now no discipline at the present time seems to be a matter of joy, but of grief; but afterward it yields the ^1apeaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been exercised by it.

12 Therefore ¹set straight the ^ahands which hang down and the paralyzed knees,

13 And make ^astraight ¹paths for your feet, that what is lame may not be ²put out of joint but rather may be ^bhealed.

14 ^aPursue peace with all men and ^1bsanctification, without which no one will see the Lord;

15 Looking carefully lest anyone ^1afall away from the ^bgrace of God; lest any ^2croot of bitterness springing up trouble you, and through this many be ^ddefiled;

16 Lest there be any ^afornicator or profane person like ^bEsau, who for one meal gave up his own ¹birthright.

17 For you know that also afterward, when he ^adesired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected; for he found ¹no place for repentance, even though he sought it with tears.

18 For you have not come forward to a ^1amountain which could be ^btouched and which was set on ^cfire, and to ^ddarkness and ^egloom and whirlwind,

19 And to the ^asound of a trumpet and to the ^bvoice of words, because of which those who heard ^centreated that no further word be spoken to them;

20 For they could not bear that which was being commanded: ^a“If even a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned.”

21 And so fearful was the sight, Moses said, “I am ^afull of fear and trembling.”

22 But you have come forward to ¹Mount ^aZion and to the ^2bcity of the ^cliving God, the ^dheavenly Jerusalem; and to ^emyriads of angels, to the ³universal gathering;

23 And to the ^achurch of the ^1bfirstborn, who have been ^2cenrolled in the heavens; and to God, the ^dJudge of all; and to the spirits of righteous men who have been made perfect;

24 And to Jesus, the ^aMediator of a ^1bnew covenant; and to the ^2cblood of ^dsprinkling, which ³speaks something better than that of ^eAbel.

25 See that you do not refuse Him who ^aspeaks, for if those did not ^bescape who refused Him who warned them upon the earth, much more we shall not ^cescape who turn away from Him who warns from heaven,

26 Whose voice at that time ^ashook the earth but now has promised, saying, ^b“Yet once more I will shake not only the earth but also heaven.”

27 And this word, “Yet once more,” shows clearly the ^aremoval of the things being shaken as being of things having been made, that the things which are not shaken may ^bremain.

28 Therefore receiving an unshakable ^1akingdom, let us ²have ^bgrace, through which we may ^cserve God ^dwell-pleasingly with piety and ^efear;

29 For our God is also a ¹consuming ^afire.

Hebrews 11:28 — Hebrews 12:9

28 By faith he instituted the ^aPassover and the pouring out of the blood so that the ^bone destroying the firstborn would not touch them.

29 By faith they ^apassed through the Red Sea as through dry land, in which the Egyptians, while making the attempt, were swallowed up.

30 ¹By faith the ^awalls of Jericho fell, having been ^bencircled for a period of seven days.

31 By faith ^aRahab the harlot did not perish with those who were disobedient, since she had ^breceived the spies with peace.

32 And what more shall I say? For time will fail me if I tell of ^aGideon, ^bBarak, ^cSamson, ^dJephthah, of ^eDavid and ^fSamuel and the prophets,

33 Who through faith ^aovercame kingdoms, ^bworked righteousness, ^cobtained promises, ^dstopped the mouths of lions,

34 ^aQuenched the power of fire, ^bescaped the edge of the sword, were made strong in weakness, became ^cmighty in war, routed the armies of foreigners.

35 Women ^areceived their dead by resurrection; and others were tortured to death, not accepting ¹deliverance, in order that they might obtain a ^2bbetter resurrection.

36 And still others underwent the trial of ^amockings and scourgings, even, moreover, of bonds and ^bimprisonment.

37 They were ^astoned, they were sawn in two, they were tempted, they died by the ^bmurder of the sword, they wandered about in sheepskins, in goatskins, destitute, afflicted, ^cill treated

38 (Of ¹whom the world was not worthy), wandering over ^adeserts and ^bmountains and in ^ccaves and holes of the earth.

39 And these all, having obtained a good ^atestimony through their faith, did ^bnot obtain the promise,

40 Because God has ¹provided something ^2abetter for us, so that ³apart from us they would not be made perfect.

CHAPTER 12

1 Therefore let us also, having so great a ^1acloud of ²witnesses surrounding us, put away every ³encumbrance and the ^4bsin which so easily entangles us and ^crun with ^dendurance the ⁵race which is set before us,

2 ¹Looking away ^aunto ²Jesus, the ^3bAuthor and ⁴Perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the ^ccross, despising the ^dshame, and has ^5esat down on the right hand of the ^fthrone of God.

3 For ^acompare Him who has endured such ^bcontradiction by sinners against Himself, so that you may not grow weary, ¹fainting in your souls.

4 You have not yet resisted unto blood, struggling against ¹sin,

5 And you have completely forgotten the exhortation which reasons with you as with sons, ^a“My son, do not regard lightly the ¹discipline of the Lord, nor faint when reproved by Him;

6 For whom the Lord loves He ^1adisciplines, and He ^bscourges every son whom He receives.”

7 It is for ¹discipline that you endure; God deals with you as with ^asons. For what son is there whom the father does not discipline?

8 But if you are without discipline, of which all sons have become partakers, then you are illegitimate and not sons.

9 Furthermore we have had the fathers of our flesh as ¹discipliners and we ^arespected them; shall we not much more be in subjection to the ^2bFather of spirits and ^clive?

Hebrews 11:8 — Hebrews 11:27

8 By faith ^aAbraham, being called, obeyed to ^bgo out unto a place which he was to ^creceive as an inheritance; and he went out, ¹not knowing where he was going.

9 By faith he dwelt as a foreigner in the ^aland of promise as in a foreign land, making his home in ^btents with Isaac and Jacob, the fellow ^cheirs of the same promise;

10 For he eagerly waited for the ^1acity which has the ^bfoundations, whose Architect and Builder is ^cGod.

11 By faith also ^aSarah herself received power to conceive seed, even beyond the season of age, since she considered Him ^bfaithful who promised.

12 Therefore also there were born of one, and that of him who had become ^adead, as many as even the ^1bstars of heaven in multitude and as the ^1csand by the ²seashore innumerable.

13 All ^athese died ¹in faith, ^bnot receiving the promises but ^cseeing them from afar and joyfully greeting them and confessing that they were ^dstrangers and ²sojourners on the earth.

14 For those who say such things make it manifest that they seek after a ^acountry of their own.

15 And if indeed they continued to remember that country from which they went out, they would have had opportunity to return;

16 But as it is, they long after a better ^acountry, that is, a ^bheavenly one. Therefore God is ^cnot ashamed of them, to be called ^dtheir God, for He has prepared a ^ecity for them.

17 By faith Abraham, being tested, ^aoffered up Isaac; indeed he who gladly received the ^bpromises was offering up his only begotten,

18 Of whom it was said, ^a“In Isaac shall your seed be called”;

19 Counting that God was ^aable to ^braise men even from the dead, from which he also received him back in ¹figure.

20 By faith ^aIsaac blessed Jacob and Esau, even concerning things to come.

21 By faith ^aJacob, while he was dying, blessed each of the sons of Joseph and ^bworshipped God, while ¹leaning on the top of his staff.

22 By faith ^aJoseph, nearing his end, made mention of the exodus of the sons of Israel and ^bgave orders concerning his bones.

23 By faith ^aMoses, when he was born, was hidden for three months by his parents because they saw that the child was ^blovely, and they did not fear the ^cking’s decree.

24 By faith Moses, when he had ^agrown up, refused to be called the ^bson of Pharaoh’s daughter,

25 Choosing rather to be ^aill treated with the people of God than to have the ¹temporary ²enjoyment of sin,

26 ^1aConsidering the ^2breproach of the Christ greater riches than the ^ctreasures of Egypt; for he ^dlooked away to the ^3ereward.

27 By faith he ^aleft Egypt, not fearing the ^bwrath of the king, for he ¹persevered as one ^cseeing the ^dunseen One.

Hebrews 10:26 — Hebrews 11:7

26 For when we ¹sin willfully after receiving the knowledge of the ²truth, there ^3ano longer remains a ^bsacrifice of bulls and goats for sins,

27 But a certain ^afearful expectation of ^bjudgment and ^cfervor of fire, which is to ^dconsume the adversaries.

28 ^aAnyone who has set aside the law of Moses dies without compassion on the testimony of ^btwo or three witnesses.

29 ^aBy ^bhow much do you think he will be thought worthy of ¹worse punishment who has ^2ctrampled underfoot the Son of God and has ³considered ^dthe blood of the covenant by which he was ^esanctified a common thing and has ⁴insulted the ^fSpirit of grace?

30 For we know Him who said, ^1a“Vengeance is Mine; I will repay”; and again, ^b“The Lord will ^cjudge His people.”

31 It is a ^afearful thing to fall into the hands of the ^bliving God.

32 But call to mind the former days, in which, having been ^aenlightened, you endured a great ^bconflict of ^csufferings;

33 On one hand, being made a ^1aspectacle both in ^breproaches and in afflictions, and on the other, having become ^cpartakers with those who are treated the same.

34 For you both sympathized with those in ^abonds and accepted with ^bjoy the plundering of your possessions, knowing that you yourselves have a ¹better ^cpossession and one that abides.

35 Do not cast away therefore your ^aboldness, which has great ^1breward.

36 For you have need of ^aendurance in order that, having done the ¹will of God, you may obtain the ^2bpromise.

37 “For in yet a very little while the Coming One will ^acome and will not delay.

38 But My ^arighteous one shall live ^bby ¹faith; and if he shrinks back, My soul does not delight in him.”

39 But we are not of those who ¹shrink back to ²ruin but of them who have faith to the ^3againing of the soul.

CHAPTER 11

1 Now ^1afaith is the ²substantiation of things ^3bhoped for, the ⁴conviction of things ^5cnot seen.

2 For in this the elders have obtained a good ^atestimony.

3 ¹By faith we understand that the ^2auniverse has been framed by the ^3bword of God, so that what is seen has not come into ^cbeing out of things which appear.

4 By faith ^aAbel offered to God a ¹more excellent sacrifice than ^bCain, through which he obtained the ^ctestimony that he was righteous, God ^dtestifying to his gifts; and through ²faith, though he has died, he still ^espeaks.

5 By faith ^aEnoch was translated so that he should not see death; and he was not found, because God had translated him. For before his translation he obtained the ^btestimony that he had been well pleasing to God.

6 But without faith it is impossible to ¹be well pleasing to Him, for he who ^acomes forward to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who ^2bdiligently seek Him.

7 By faith ^aNoah, having been divinely instructed concerning things not yet seen and being moved by pious fear, ^bprepared an ark for the salvation of his house, through which he condemned the world, and became ^cheir of the righteousness which is according to faith.
