who being the brightness of the glory, and the impress of His subsistence, bearing up also the all things by the saying of his might -- through himself having made a cleansing of our sins, sat down at the right hand of the greatness in the highest,

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

for if the word being spoken through messengers did become stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience did receive a just recompense,

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

being stedfast to Him who did appoint him, as also Moses in all his house,

in its being said, 'To-day, if His voice ye may hear, ye may not harden your hearts, as in the provocation,'

We may fear, then, lest a promise being left of entering into His rest, any one of you may seem to have come short,

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,

through being a Son, did learn by the things which he suffered -- the obedience,

to whom also a tenth of all did Abraham divide, (first, indeed, being interpreted, 'King of righteousness,' and then also, King of Salem, which is, King of Peace,)

without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, and being made like to the Son of God, doth remain a priest continually.

for the priesthood being changed, of necessity also, of the law a change doth come,

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,

who unto an example and shadow do serve of the heavenly things, as Moses hath been divinely warned, being about to construct the tabernacle, for 'See (saith He) thou mayest make all things according to the pattern that was shewn to thee in the mount;') --

And Christ being come, chief priest of the coming good things, through the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands -- that is, not of this creation --

partly both with reproaches and tribulations being made spectacles, and partly having become partners of those so living,

by faith a better sacrifice did Abel offer to God than Cain, through which he was testified to be righteous, God testifying of his gifts, and through it, he being dead, doth yet speak.

By faith Abraham, being called, did obey, to go forth to the place that he was about to receive for an inheritance, and he went forth, not knowing whither he doth go;

By faith Abraham hath offered up Isaac, being tried, and the only begotten he did offer up who did receive the promises,

they were stoned, they were sawn asunder, they were tried; in the killing of the sword they died; they went about in sheepskins, in goatskins -- being destitute, afflicted, injuriously treated,

for consider again him who endured such gainsaying from the sinners to himself, that ye may not be wearied in your souls -- being faint.

and ye have forgotten the exhortation that doth speak fully with you as with sons, 'My son, be not despising chastening of the Lord, nor be faint, being reproved by Him,

be mindful of those in bonds, as having been bound with them, of those maltreated, as also yourselves being in the body;

Without covetousness the behaviour, being content with the things present, for He hath said, 'No, I will not leave, no, nor forsake thee,'
