Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things that were heard, lest haply we drift away from them .

how shall we escape, if we neglect so great a salvation? which having at the first been spoken through the Lord, was confirmed unto us by them that heard;

Wherefore I was displeased with this generation, And said, They do always err in their heart: But they did not know my ways;

Take heed, brethren, lest haply there shall be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God:

For who, when they heard, did provoke? nay, did not all they that came out of Egypt by Moses?

For indeed we have had good tidings preached unto us, even as also they: but the word of hearing did not profit them, because it was not united by faith with them that heard.

For the word of God is living, and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and quick to discern the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Who in the days of his flesh, having offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and having been heard for his godly fear,

Of whom we have many things to say, and hard of interpretation, seeing ye are become dull of hearing.

For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel After those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, And on their heart also will I write them: And I will be to them a God, And they shall be to me a people:

This is the covenant that I will make with them After those days, saith the Lord: I will put my laws on their heart, And upon their mind also will I write them; then saith he,

let us draw near with a true heart in fulness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience: and having our body washed with pure water,

and the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard entreated that no word more should be spoken unto them;

Be not carried away by divers and strange teachings: for it is good that the heart be established by grace; not by meats, wherein they that occupied themselves were not profited.
