Jesus

and to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaketh better than that of Abel.

See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not when they refused him that warned them on earth, much more shall not we escape who turn away from him that warneth from heaven:

whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more will I make to tremble not the earth only, but also the heaven.

So that with good courage we say, The Lord is my helper; I will not fear: What shall man do unto me?

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and to-day, yea and for ever.

Wherefore Jesus also, that he might sanctify the people through his own blood, suffered without the gate.

Let us therefore go forth unto him without the camp, bearing his reproach.

Through him then let us offer up a sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of lips which make confession to his name.

Now the God of peace, who brought again from the dead the great shepherd of the sheep with the blood of an eternal covenant, even our Lord Jesus,

make you perfect in every good thing to do his will, working in us that which is well-pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be the glory for ever and ever. Amen.

James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are of the Dispersion, greeting.

For let not that man think that he shall receive anything of the Lord;

Blessed is the man that endureth temptation; for when he hath been approved, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord promised to them that love him.

Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.

My brethren, hold not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lordof glory, with respect of persons.

For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou dost not commit adultery, but killest, thou art become a transgressor of the law.

But he giveth more grace. Wherefore the scripture saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble.

Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall exalt you.

For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall both live, and do this or that.

Behold, the hire of the laborers who mowed your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth out: and the cries of them that reaped have entered into the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth.

Be patient therefore, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient over it, until it receive the early and latter rain.

Be ye also patient; establish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord is at hand.

Murmur not, brethren, one against another, that ye be not judged: behold, the judge standeth before the doors.

Take, brethren, for an example of suffering and of patience, the prophets who spake in the name of the Lord.

Behold, we call them blessed that endured: ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord, how that the Lord is full of pity, and merciful.
