'For Us' in the Bible

For this reason there is the more need for us to give attention to the things which have come to our ears, for fear that by chance we might be slipping away.

how can we, of all people, expect to escape, if we disregard so great a Salvation? It was the Master who at the outset spoke of this Salvation, and its authority was confirmed for us by those who heard him,

For we [believers] have become partakers of Christ [sharing in all that the Messiah has for us], if only we hold firm our newborn confidence [which originally led us to Him] until the end,

So let us fear that when the promise for us to be admitted to His rest is still remaining valid some one of you may be found to have missed it.

For we have not a High Priest who is unable to feel for us in our weaknesses, but one who was tempted in every respect just as we are tempted, and yet did not sin.

so that by two unchangeable things [His promise and His oath] in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled [to Him] for refuge would have strong encouragement and indwelling strength to hold tightly to the hope set before us.

Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.

Wherefore he is able also ever to save them that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth, to make intercession for us.

For a high priest such as this indeed is fitting for us, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, and having become exalted [above] the heavens,

Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.

For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:

And the Holy Spirit is a witness for us: for after he had said,

Having therefore, brethren, entire liberty of entrance into the holies by the blood of Jesus??20 a way, which he hath consecrated for us, newly opened, and giving life, through the vail, that is, his flesh;

By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;

For if we deliberately keep on sinning after receiving the knowledge of the truth, no further sacrifice for sins is left for us,

but a kind of awful and terrifying expectation of [divine] judgment and the fury of a fire and burning wrath which will consume the adversaries [those who put themselves in opposition to God].

as for us, we are not such as desert to their own destruction; but such as persevere in the faith, to the saving of our souls.

God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.

For this reason, as we are circled by so great a cloud of witnesses, putting off every weight, and the sin into which we come so readily, let us keep on running in the way which is marked out for us,

Beware how you refuse to hear him who is speaking. For, if the Israelites did not escape punishment, when they refused to listen to him who taught them on earth the divine will, far worse will it be for us, if we turn away from him who is teaching us from Heaven.

Pray for us: for we trust we have a good conscience, in all things willing to live honestly.

And I urge all of you to pray earnestly, so that I may be restored to you soon.
