For unto which of the angels said he at any time, You are my Son, this day have I begotten you? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?

But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool?

Saying, I will declare your name unto my brethren, in the midst of the congregation will I sing praise unto you.

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

When your fathers tested me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.

Therefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do always err in their heart; and they have not known my ways.

So I swore in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.)

For we who have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, they shall not enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.

And in this place again, They shall not enter into my rest.

Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

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

So also Christ glorified not himself to be made a high priest; but he that said unto him, You are my Son, today have I begotten you.

And as I may so say, Levi also, who receives tithes, paid tithes in Abraham.

Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day when I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt; because they continued not in my covenant, and I regarded them not, says the Lord.

For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people:

And they shall not teach every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest.

Therefore when he comes into the world, he says, Sacrifice and offering you desired not, but a body have you prepared me:

Then said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do your will, O God.

Then said he, Lo, I come to do your will, O God. He takes away the first, that he may establish the second.

This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;

For we know him that has said, Vengeance belongs unto me, I will recompense, says the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.

For you had compassion on me in my bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that you have in heaven a better and an enduring possession.

Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.

And what shall I say more? for the time would fail me to tell of Gideon, and of Barak, and of Samson, and of Jephthah; of David also, and Samuel, and of the prophets:

And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks unto you as unto children, My son, despise not the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when you are rebuked of him:

And this word, Yet once more, signifies the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain.

Therefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear:

So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.

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

But I beseech you rather to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.
