God who at sundry times and in divers manners spake of old to the fathers by the prophets, hath in these last days spoken to us by his Son;

Whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom he also made the worlds:

Being made so much higher than the angels, as he hath by inheritance a more excellent name than they.

Thou hast loved righteousness and hated iniquity; therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.

For he hath not subjected to the angels the world to come, whereof we speak.

And again, I will put my trust in him: And again, Behold I and the children whom God hath given me.

For in that he hath suffered, being tempted himself, he is able to succour them that are tempted.

For this person was counted worthy of more glory than Moses, inasmuch as he that hath builded it hath more honour than the house.

For unto us hath the gospel been preached as well as unto them; but the word heard did not profit them, not being mixt with faith in those that heard it.

For he that hath entered into his rest, hath himself also ceased from his works, as God did from his.

But this, because he continueth for ever, hath a priesthood that passeth not away.

The sum of what hath been spoken is, We have such an high priest, who is set down at the right-hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens,

A minister of the sanctuary and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord hath fixed and not man.

And now he hath obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much better a covenant he is a mediator of, which is established upon better promises.

In saying, a new covenant, he hath antiquated the first; now that which is antiquated and decayed, is ready to vanish away.

and sprinkled all the people, Saying, This is the blood of the testament, which God hath enjoined unto you.

For then he must often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once at the consummation of the ages hath he been manifested, to abolish sin by the sacrifice of himself.

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

By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us through the veil,

Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering (for he is faithful that hath promised) And let us consider one another,

Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and counted the blood of the covenant, by which he hath been sanctified, an unholy thing, and done despite to the spirit of grace?

For we know him that hath said, Vengeance is mine; I will recompence: and again, The Lord will judge his people.

Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.

Now the just shall live by faith; but if he draw back, my soul hath no pleasure in him.

For he looked for the city which hath foundations, whose builder and maker is God.

But they now desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God; for he hath prepared a city for them.

Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I will shake not only the earth, but also the heaven.

Let your disposition be without covetousness: be content with the things that are present; for he hath said, No, I will not leave thee: verily I will not forsake thee.
