Hebrews 12:15

A Serious Warning Against Refusing God

¹⁴ Peace, be pursuing, with all, and the obtaining of holiness, - without which no one shall see the Lord: ¹⁵ Using oversight - lest any one be falling behind from the favour of God, - lest any root of bitterness, springing up above, be causing trouble, and, through it, the many, be defiled: ¹⁶ Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, like Esau, - who, for the sake of one meal, yielded up his own firstborn rights;
