Jesus

Then said I: Behold, I come to do thy will, O God: He taketh away the first, that he may establish that which followeth.

In the which will, we are sanctified by the oblation of the body of Jesus Christ once.

But this man, offering one sacrifice for sins, for ever sitteth on the right hand of God,

From henceforth expecting until his enemies be made his footstool.

For by one oblation he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.

And the Holy Ghost also doth testify this to us. For after that he said:

And this is the testament which I will make unto them after those days, saith the Lord. I will give my laws in their hearts and on their minds will I write them:

Having therefore, brethren, a confidence in the entering into the holies by the blood of Christ:

A new and living way which he hath dedicated for us through the veil, that is to say, his flesh:

And a high priest over the house of God:

Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering (for he is faithful that hath promised):

How much more, do you think he deserveth worse punishments, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God and hath esteemed the blood of the testament unclean, by which he was sanctified, and hath offered an affront to the Spirit of grace?

For we know him that hath said: Vengeance belongeth to me, and I will repay. And again: The Lord shall judge his people.

For yet a little and a very little while, and he that is to come will come and will not delay.

But my just man liveth by faith: but if he withdraw himself, he shall not please my soul.

But without faith it is impossible to please God. For he that cometh to God must believe that he is: and is a rewarder to them that seek him.

By faith also Sara herself, being barren, received strength to conceive seed, even past the time of age: because she believed that he was faithful who had promised,

Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasure of the Egyptians. For he looked unto the reward.

By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the fierceness of the king: for he endured, as seeing him that is invisible.

Looking on Jesus, the author and finisher of faith, who, having joy set before him, endured the cross, despising the shame, and now sitteth on the right hand of the throne of God.

For think diligently upon him that endured such opposition from sinners against himself that you be not wearied, fainting in your minds.

And you have forgotten the consolation which speaketh to you, as unto children, saying: My son, neglect not the discipline of the Lord: neither be thou wearied whilst thou art rebuked by him.

For whom the Lord loveth he chastiseth: and he scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.

And they indeed for a few days, according to their own pleasure, instructed us: but he, for our profit, that we might receive his sanctification.

Follow peace with all men and holiness: without which no man shall see God.
