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. |
|
|
|
2 |
For then would they not have ceased to be offered?
because that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience
of sins. |
|
|
|
3 |
But in those sacrifices there is a remembrance again made
of sins every year. |
|
|
|
4 |
For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats
should take away sins. |
|
|
|
5 |
Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice
and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou prepared me: |
|
|
|
6 |
In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou hast had no
pleasure. |
|
|
|
7 |
Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written
of me,) to do thy will, O God. |
|
|
|
8 |
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; |
|
|
|
9 |
Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God.
He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second. |
|
|
|
10 |
By the which will we are sanctified
through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. |
|
|
|
11 |
And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes
the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: |
|
|
|
12 |
But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice
for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God; |
|
|
|
13 |
From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool. |
|
|
|
14 |
For by one offering he hath perfected
for ever them that are sanctified. |
|
|
|
15 |
Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after
that he had said before, |
|
|
|
16 |
This is the covenant that I will make with them after those
days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their
minds will I write them; |
|
|
|
17 |
And their sins and iniquities will I remember no
more. |
|
|
|
18 |
Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering
for sin. |
|
|
|
19 |
Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter
into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, |
|
|
|
20 |
By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated
for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh; |
|
|
|
21 |
And having an high priest over the house of God; |
|
|
|
22 |
Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith,
having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed
with pure water. |
|
|
|
23 |
Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering;
(for he is faithful that promised;) |
|
|
|
24 |
And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to
good works: |
|
|
|
25 |
Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves
together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much
the more, as ye see the day approaching. |
|
|
|
26 |
For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge
of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, |
|
|
|
27 |
But a certain fearful looking for of judgment
and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. |
|
|
|
28 |
He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or
three witnesses: |
|
|
|
29 |
Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought
worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the
blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and
hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace? |
|
|
|
30 |
For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me,
I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people. |
|
|
| |
31 |
It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living
God. |
|
|
| |
32 |
But call to remembrance the former days, in which, after ye
were illuminated, ye endured a great fight of afflictions; |
|
|
| |
33 |
Partly, whilst ye were made a gazingstock both
by reproaches and afflictions; and partly, whilst ye became companions of
them that were so used. |
|
|
| |
34 |
For ye had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully
the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven
a better and an enduring substance. |
|
|
| |
35 |
Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great
recompence of reward. |
|
|
| |
36 |
For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the
will of God, ye might receive the promise. |
|
|
| |
37 |
For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come,
and will not tarry. |
|
|
| |
38 |
Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back,
my soul shall have no pleasure in him. |
|
|
| |
39 |
But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of
them that believe to the saving of the soul. |
