has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, by whom also He made the worlds,

For to which of the angels did He say at any time, "You are My Son, this day I have begotten You?" And again, "I will be to Him a Father, and He shall be to Me a Son?"

But to the Son He says, "Your throne, O God, is forever and ever. A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of Your kingdom.

But one testified in a certain place, saying, "What is man, that You are mindful of him; or the son of man, that You visit him?

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

But exhort one another daily, while it is called today, lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.

Since then we have a great High Priest who has passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.

For we do not have a high priest who cannot be touched with the feelings of our infirmities, but was in all points tempted just as we are, yet without sin.

So also Christ did not glorify Himself to be made a high priest, but He who said to Him, "You are My Son, today I have begotten You."

though being a Son, yet He learned obedience by the things which He suffered.

and who have fallen away; it is impossible, I say, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify the Son of God afresh to themselves and put Him to an open shame.

without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days nor end of life, but made like the Son of God, he remains a priest continually.

For the Law appoints men high priests who have infirmity, but the word of the swearing of an oath, after the Law, has consecrated the Son forever, having been perfected.

(for then He must have suffered often since the foundation of the world), but now once in the end of the world He has appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.

so Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many. And to those who look for Him He shall appear the second time without sin to salvation.

For then would they not have ceased to be offered? Because the worshipers, when they had been once for all purged, would have had no more conscience of sin.

In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin You have had no pleasure.

Above, when He said, "Sacrifice and offering, and burnt offerings and offering for sin You did not desire, neither did You have pleasure in them" (which are offered according to the Law),

Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.

For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remains no more sacrifice for sins,

Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy of punishment, the one who has trampled the Son of God, and who has counted the blood of the covenant with which he was sanctified an unholy thing, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

By faith we understand that the ages were framed by a word of God, so that the things being seen not to have come into being out of the things that appear.

By faith Noah, having been warned by God of things not yet seen, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith.

These all died by way of faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off. And they were persuaded of them and embraced them and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth.

By faith Abraham, being tested, offered up Isaac. And he who had received the promises offered up his only-begotten son,

Having become great, Moses by faith refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter,

choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a time,

Therefore since we also are surrounded with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily besets us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

You have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.

And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons, "My son, despise not the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when you are rebuked by Him;

for whom the Lord loves He chastens, and He scourges every son whom He receives."

If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons, for what son is he whom the father does not chasten?

But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,

For the bodies of those animals, whose blood is brought into the Holy of Holies by the high priest for sin, are burned outside the camp.
