and, 'Thou, at the beginning, Lord, the earth didst found, and a work of thy hands are the heavens;

are they not all spirits of service -- for ministration being sent forth because of those about to inherit salvation?

For it was becoming to Him, because of whom are the all things, and through whom are the all things, many sons to glory bringing, the author of their salvation through sufferings to make perfect,

for both he who is sanctifying and those sanctified are all of one, for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,

for in that he suffered, himself being tempted, he is able to help those who are tempted.

and Christ, as a Son over his house, whose house are we, if the boldness and the rejoicing of the hope unto the end we hold fast.

for we also are having good news proclaimed, even as they, but the word heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard,

and there is not a created thing not manifest before Him, but all things are naked and open to His eyes -- with whom is our reckoning.

for even owing to be teachers, because of the time, again ye have need that one teach you what are the elements of the beginning of the oracles of God, and ye have become having need of milk, and not of strong food,

and of perfect men is the strong food, who because of the use are having the senses exercised, unto the discernment both of good and of evil.

and we are persuaded, concerning you, beloved, the things that are better, and accompanying salvation, though even thus we speak,

that ye may not become slothful, but followers of those who through faith and patient endurance are inheriting the promises.

for he of whom these things are said in another tribe hath had part, of whom no one gave attendance at the altar,

And inasmuch as it is not apart from oath, (for those indeed apart from oath are become priests,

and those indeed are many who have become priests, because by death they are hindered from remaining;

for if, indeed, he were upon earth, he would not be a priest -- (there being the priests who are offering according to the law, the gifts,

and over it cherubim of the glory, overshadowing the mercy-seat, concerning which we are not now to speak particularly.

which is a simile in regard to the present time, in which both gifts and sacrifices are offered, which are not able, in regard to conscience, to make perfect him who is serving,

and with blood almost all things are purified according to the law, and apart from blood-shedding forgiveness doth not come.

saying above -- 'Sacrifice, and offering, and burnt-offerings, and concerning sin-offering Thou didst not will, nor delight in,' -- which according to the law are offered --

in the which will we are having been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once,

and every priest, indeed, hath stood daily serving, and the same sacrifices many times offering, that are never able to take away sins.

and we are not of those drawing back to destruction, but of those believing to a preserving of soul.

In faith died all these, not having received the promises, but from afar having seen them, and having been persuaded, and having saluted them, and having confessed that strangers and sojourners they are upon the earth,

and if ye are apart from chastening, of which all have become partakers, then bastards are ye, and not sons.

we have an altar, of which to eat they have no authority who the tabernacle are serving,

for of those beasts whose blood is brought for sin into the holy places through the chief priest -- of these the bodies are burned without the camp.
