but of the Son: "Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever; and the sceptre of thy kingdom is a sceptre of righteousness.

They will perish, but thou remainest; and they will all become old as doth a garment,

and thou wilt fold them up as a vesture, and they will be changed; but thou art the same, and thy years will not fail."

But to which of the angels hath he ever said: "Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool?"

For not to angels did he put in subjection the world to come, of which we are speaking.

But one in a certain place bore testimony, saying, "What is man, that thou art mindful of him, or the son of man, that thou carest for him?

thou didst put all things in subjection under his feet." For in that he put all things in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we do not yet see all things put under him.

But we see him who was made a little lower than the angels, Jesus, on account of the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor; that by the grace of God he might taste death for every one.

And again, "I will put my trust in him;" and again, "Behold, I, and the children which God gave me."

For surely he doth not help angels, but he helpeth the offspring of Abraham.

For every house is builded by some one; but he who built all things is God.

but Christ as a son over his house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and joyousness of our hope.

Wherefore I was offended with that generation, and said, They always err in their heart, but they knew not my ways;

But exhort one another daily, as long as it is called Today, that none of you may be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.

For to us were glad tidings addressed, as well as to them; but the word which was heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard it.

and there is no creature that is not manifest in his sight; but all things are naked and laid open to the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

For we have not a highpriest who cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who hath in all points been tempted as we are, without sin.

And no one taketh this honor to himself, but when called by God, as was Aaron.

Thus Christ did not glorify himself to be made highpriest, but he who said to him, "Thou art my Son, I this day have begotten thee;"

but solid food belongs to those who are of full age, who by use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

and have fallen away, should again be renewed to repentance, since they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to open shame.

but if it bear thorns and briers it is disapproved, and is near to being accursed; and its end is to be burned.

But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that are connected with salvation, though we do thus speak.

But we earnestly desire that every one of you may show the same diligence with regard to the full assurance of your hope even to the end;

that ye may not become slothful, but imitators of those who through faith and endurance inherit the promises.

without father, without mother, without record of descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life, but likened to the Son of God, remaineth a priest for ever.

but he whose descent is not reckoned from them took tithes of Abraham, and blessed him who had the promises.

And here indeed men that die receive tithes; but there he of whom it is testified that he liveth.

And so to speak, Levi also, who receiveth tithes, paid tithes in Abraham;

who hath been made, not according to the law of a fleshly commandment, but according to the power of an indissoluble life.

for they indeed have been made priests without an oath; but he with an oath by him who said to him, "The Lord swore, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever,"

but he, because he abideth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood;

For the Law maketh men highpriests, who have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was after the Law, maketh the Son, who is perfected for ever.

But now he hath obtained a more excellent ministry, in proportion as he is the mediator of a better covenant, which hath been established upon better promises.

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 hearts will I write them; and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people.

In that he saith, "a new covenant," he hath made the first old; but that which is becoming old, and worn out with age, is ready to vanish away.

which had the golden altar of incense, and the ark of the covenant overlaid on every side with gold, wherein was the golden pot containing the manna, and the rod of Aaron which budded, and the tables of the covenant;

but into the second the highpriest alone once every year, not without blood, which he offereth for himself, and for the errors of the people;

But Christ having appeared, as a highpriest of the good things to come, passing through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is, not of this creation, entered once for all into the sanctuary,

not with the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood, and obtained for us everlasting redemption.

It was necessary therefore that the copies of the things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with sacrifices better than these.

For Christ did not enter into a sanctuary made with hands, which is only a copy of the true one, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God in our behalf.

for then must he have suffered many times since the foundation of the world; but now once in the end of the world he hath appeared, to put away sin by means of his sacrifice.

And as it is appointed to men once to die, but after this the judgment;

For the Law but shadowing forth the good things to come, and not having the very image of the things, can never with the same sacrifices which they offer year by year continually make those who come with them perfect.

But in these sacrifices there is a remembrance of sins every year.

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

but he, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins, sat down for ever on the right hand of God,

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

But where there is remission of these, there is no longer offering for sin.

not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another; and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

but a certain fearful looking for judgment, and an indignation by fire, which will devour the adversaries.

But call to remembrance the former days, in which, after ye were enlightened, ye endured a great struggle with sufferings;

Now my righteous man shall live by faith; but if he draw back, my soul hath no pleasure in him."

But we are not of those who draw back, unto perdition; but of those who believe, to the saving of the soul.

But without faith it is impossible to please him; for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of those who diligently seek him.

These all died in faith, not having received the promised blessings, but having seen them from afar, and greeted them, and having professed that they were strangers and sojourners on the earth.

but now they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly. Wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God; for he prepared for them a city.

quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, became mighty in war, put to flight the armies of the aliens.

Women received back their dead by a resurrection; but others were tortured, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection;

But if ye are without chastening, of which all have been made partakers, then are ye bastards and not sons.

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

Now all chastening for the present indeed seemeth to be not joyous, but grievous; but afterward it yieldeth the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been exercised thereby.

and make straight paths for your feet, that the lame may not be turned out of the way, but may rather be healed.

but ye have come to Mount Zion, and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem; and to myriads, the general assembly of angels;

whose voice then shook the earth; but now he hath promised, saying, "Yet once more will I shake, not the earth only, but also the heaven."

Let marriage be honored in all respects, and the bed be undefiled; but whoremongers and adulterers God will judge.

for here we have no abiding city, but are seeking that which is to come.

But works of kindness and liberality forget not; for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

but I the more earnestly entreat you to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner.

But I beseech you, brethren, bear with the word of my exhortation; for I have written to you in few words.
