For to which of the angels did he ever say, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?

But unto the Son, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever; the sceptre of thy kingdom is a sceptre of righteousness:

But to which of the angels did he ever say, Sit at my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?

Thou madest him a little lower than the angels, thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands.

But Christ as a Son over his own house, whose house we are, if we hold fast the confidence and the glorying of hope, firm to the end.

For every high priest being taken from among men, is appointed for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins,

And because hereof it behoveth him, as for the people, so also for himself to offer for sins.

As he saith also in another place, Thou art a priest for ever, after the order of Melchisedeck:

Whither Jesus our fore-runner is entered for us, made an high-priest for ever after the order of Melchisedek.

For it is testified, Thou art a priest for ever, after the order of Melchisedek.

but this with an oath, by him that said unto him, The Lord sware and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever, after the order of Melchisedek:)

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

Wherefore he is able also, to save them to the uttermost who come to God thro' him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifices, first for his own sins, then for those of the people: for this he did once for all, when he offered up himself.

For every high priest is ordained to offer up gifts and sacrifices; whence it was necessary, that this also should have somewhat to offer.

For if he were on earth, he would not be a priest, there being priests that offer gifts, according to the law,

And over it were the Cherubim of glory, shadowing the mercy-seat; of which we cannot now speak particularly.

Nor did he enter, that he might offer himself often (as the high-priest entered into the holy place every year with the blood of others.)

For the law having a shadow of good things to come, not the very image of the things, can never with the same sacrifices which they offer year by year continually, make the comers thereunto perfect.

for ever sat down at the right hand of God, From thenceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.

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

that is, his flesh, And having an high-priest over the house of God;

All these died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off, and embraced them, and confest that they were strangers and sojourners on the earth.

Remember them that had the rule over you, who spake to you the word of God, whose faith follow, considering the end of their conversation.

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and to day and for ever.

By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise continually to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to his name.

Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves; for they watch over your souls, as they that must give account; that they may do this with joy, and not with groans: for that is unprofitable for you.

Make you perfect in every good work, to do his will, working in you that which is well pleasing in his sight thro' Christ Jesus; to whom be the glory for ever and ever. Amen.

Salute all them that have the rule over you, and all the saints.
