and as a covering shalt thou roll them up, and they shall be changed; but thou art the Same, and thy years shall not fail.

Who in the days of his flesh, having offered up both supplications and entreaties to him who was able to save him out of death, with strong crying and tears; (and having been heard because of his piety;)

and having been perfected, became to all them that obey him, author of eternal salvation;

who has not day by day need, as the high priests, first to offer up sacrifices for his own sins, then for those of the people; for this he did once for all in having offered up himself.

For a tabernacle was set up; the first, in which were both the candlestick and the table and the exposition of the loaves, which is called Holy;

By faith Abraham, when tried, offered up Isaac, and he who had received to himself the promises offered up his only begotten son,

By faith they passed through the Red sea as through dry land; of which the Egyptians having made trial were swallowed up.

Wherefore lift up the hands that hang down, and the failing knees;

watching lest there be any one who lacks the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and many be defiled by it;

Obey your leaders, and be submissive; for they watch over your souls as those that shall give account; that they may do this with joy, and not groaning, for this would be unprofitable for you.
