For unto which of the angels said he at any time, 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 of which of the angels hath he said at any time, Sit thou on my right hand, Till I make thine enemies the footstool of thy feet?

saying, I will declare thy name unto my brethren, In the midst of the congregation will I sing thy praise.

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

Where your fathers tried me by proving me, And saw my works forty years.

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

As I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.

For we who have believed do enter into that rest; even as he hath said, As I sware 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 draw near with boldness unto the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace to help us in time of need.

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:

So Christ also glorified not himself to be made a high priest, but he that spake unto him, Thou art my Son, This day have I begotten thee:

And we desire that each one of you may show the same diligence unto the fulness of hope even to the end:

that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we may have a strong encouragement, who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us:

Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers In the day that I took them by the hand to lead them forth out of the land of Egypt; For they continued not in my covenant, And I regarded them not, saith the Lord.

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:

And they shall not teach every man his fellow-citizen, And every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: For all shall know me, From the least to the greatest of them.

And for this cause he is the mediator of a new covenant, that a death having taken place for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first covenant, they that have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.

And according to the law, I may almost say, all things are cleansed with blood, and apart from shedding of blood there is no remission.

Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, But a body didst thou prepare for me;

Then said I, Lo, I am come (In the roll of the book it is written of me) To do thy will, O God.

then hath he said, Lo, I am come to do thy will. He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.

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,

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

For ye have need of patience, that, having done the will of God, ye may receive the promise.

But my righteous one shall live by faith: And if he shrink back, my soul hath no pleasure in him.

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

and ye have forgotten the exhortation which reasoneth with you as with sons, My son, regard not lightly the chastening of the Lord, Nor faint when thou art reproved of him;

For they indeed for a few days chastened us as seemed good to them; but he for our profit, that we may be partakers of his holiness.

And this word , Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, that those things which are not shaken may remain.

Wherefore, receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us have grace, whereby we may offer service well-pleasing to God with reverence and awe:

So that with good courage we say, The Lord is my helper; I will not fear: What shall man do unto me?

Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit to them : for they watch in behalf of your souls, as they that shall give account; that they may do this with joy, and not with grief: for this were unprofitable for you.

And I exhort you the more exceedingly to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.
