God, who at sundry
times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the
prophets,
2 Hath in these last
days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by
whom also he made the worlds;
3 Who being the
brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all
things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat
down on the right hand of the Majesty on high:
4 Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by
inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
5 For unto which of
the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee?
And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?
6 And again, when he
bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels
of God worship him.
7 And of the angels
he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
8 But unto the Son he
saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is
the sceptre of thy kingdom.
9 Thou hast loved
righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed
thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
10 And, Thou, Lord,
in the beginning hast laid the foundation of the earth; and the heavens are the
works of thine hands:
11 They shall perish;
but thou remainest; and they all shall wax old as doth a garment;
12 And as a vesture
shalt thou fold them up, and they shall be changed: but thou art the same, and
thy years shall not fail.
13 But to which of
the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine
enemies thy footstool?
14 Are they not all
ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of
salvation?
Heb 2
Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the
things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.
2 For if the word
spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience
received a just recompence of reward;
3 How shall we
escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken
by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him;
4 God also bearing
them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts
of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?
5 For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection the
world to come, whereof we speak.
6 But one in a certain place testified, saying, What is man,
that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man that thou visitest him?
7 Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou
crownedst him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy
hands:
8 Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For
in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put
under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him.
9 But we see Jesus,
who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned
with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every
man.
10 For it became him,
for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto
glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.
11 For both he that
sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is
not ashamed to call them brethren,
12 Saying, I will
declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the church will I sing
praise unto thee.
13 And again, I will
put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the children which God hath given
me.
14 Forasmuch then as
the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took
part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of
death, that is, the devil;
15 And deliver them
who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.
16 For verily he took
not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham.
17 Wherefore in all
things it behoved him to be made like unto his brethren, that he might be a
merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make
reconciliation for the sins of the people.
18 For in that he
himself hath suffered being tempted, he is able to succour them that are
tempted.
Heb 3
Wherefore, holy
brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High
Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;
2 Who was faithful to
him that appointed him, as also Moses was faithful in all his house.
3 For this man was
counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he who hath builded the
house hath more honour than the house.
4 For every house is
builded by some man; but he that built all things is God.
5 And Moses verily
was faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things
which were to be spoken after;
6 But Christ as a son
over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the
rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end.
7 Wherefore (as the
Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,
8 Harden not your
hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:
9 When your fathers
tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.
10 Wherefore I was
grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and
they have not known my ways.
11 So I sware in my
wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)
12 Take heed,
brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing
from the living God.
13 But exhort one
another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through
the deceitfulness of sin.
14 For we are made
partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning of our confidence stedfast unto
the end;
15 While it is said,
To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the
provocation.
16 For some, when
they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt
17 But with whom was
he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases
fell in the wilderness?
18 And to whom sware
he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?
19 So we see that
they could not enter in because of unbelief.
Heb 4
Let us therefore
fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you
should seem to come short of it.
2 For unto us was the
gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit
them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.
3 For we which have
believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they
shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation
of the world.
4 For he spake in a
certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day
from all his works.
5 And in this place
again, If they shall enter into my rest.
6 Seeing therefore it
remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached
entered not in because of unbelief:
7 Again, he limiteth
a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it is said, To
day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
8 For if Jesus had
given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.
9 There remaineth
therefore a rest to the people of God.
10 For he that is
entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from
his.
11 Let us labour
therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of
unbelief.
12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper
than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and
spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and
intents of the heart.
13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his
sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we
have to do.
14 Seeing then that
we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of
God, let us hold fast our profession.
15 For we have not an
high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but
was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
16 Let us therefore
come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace
to help in time of need.
Heb 5
For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for
men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices
for sins:
2 Who can have
compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are out of the way; for that he
himself also is compassed with infirmity.
3 And by reason
hereof he ought, as for the people, so also for himself, to offer for sins.
4 And no man taketh
this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron.
5 So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high
priest; but he that said unto him, Thou art my Son, to day have I begotten
thee.
6 As he saith also in another place, Thou art a priest for
ever after the order of Melchisedec.
7 Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up
prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able
to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared;
8 Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the
things which he suffered;
9 And being made
perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him;
10 Called of God an
high priest after the order of Melchisedec.
11 Of whom we have many things to say, and hard to be
uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing.
12 For when for the
time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be
the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of
milk, and not of strong meat.
13 For every one that
useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.
14 But strong meat
belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have
their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
Heb 6
Therefore leaving the
principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying
again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,
2 Of the doctrine of
baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of
eternal judgment.
3 And this will we
do, if God permit.
4 For it is impossible
for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and
were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,
5 And have tasted the
good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
6 If they shall fall
away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves
the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.
7 For the earth which
drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for
them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God:
8 But that which
beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is
to be burned.
9 But, beloved, we
are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though
we thus speak.
10 For God is not
unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward
his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
11 And we desire that
every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto
the end:
12 That ye be not
slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the
promises.
13 For when God made
promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself,
14 Saying, Surely
blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee.
15 And so, after he
had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
16 For men verily
swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all
strife.
17 Wherein God,
willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of
his counsel, confirmed it by an oath:
18 That by two
immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a
strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set
before us:
19 Which hope we have
as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that
within the veil;
20 Whither the
forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest for ever after
the order of Melchisedec.
Heb 7
For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high
God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed
him;
2 To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being
by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem,
which is, King of peace;
3 Without father,
without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of
life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.
4 Now consider how great this man was, unto whom even the
patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils.
5 And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive
the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people
according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the
loins of Abraham:
6 But he whose
descent is not counted from them received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him
that had the promises.
7 And without all
contradiction the less is blessed of the better.
8 And here men that
die receive tithes; but there he receiveth them, of whom it is witnessed that
he liveth.
9 And as I may so
say, Levi also, who receiveth tithes, payed tithes in Abraham.
10 For he was yet in
the loins of his father, when Melchisedec met him.
11 If therefore
perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received
the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the
order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?
12 For the priesthood
being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.
13 For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to
another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar.
14 For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of
which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.
15 And it is yet far more evident: for that after the
similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest,
16 Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment,
but after the power of an endless life.
17 For he testifieth,
Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
18 For there is
verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and
unprofitableness thereof.
19 For the law made
nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw
nigh unto God.
20 And inasmuch as
not without an oath he was made priest:
21 (For those priests
were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him that said unto him, The
Lord sware and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of
Melchisedec:)
22 By so much was
Jesus made a surety of a better testament.
23 And they truly
were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of
death:
24 But this man,
because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.
25 Wherefore he is
able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he
ever liveth to make intercession for them.
26 For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless,
undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
27 Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up
sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did
once, when he offered up himself.
28 For the law maketh
men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was
since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for evermore.
