But it is now having been manifested by the appearing of our Savior Jesus Christ, who has made death of no effect, bringing life and immortality to light through the gospel;

For this cause I also suffer these things; but I am not ashamed, for I know whom I have believed, and I am persuaded that He is able to guard My deposit unto that Day.

But when he was in Rome, he sought me out very diligently and found me.

in which I suffer ill as an evildoer, even to bonds. But the Word of God is not chained.

But shun profane, vain babblings, for they will increase to more ungodliness.

But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honor, and some to dishonor.

But flee youthful lusts, and follow righteousness, faith, love, peace, with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

But avoid foolish and unlearned questions, knowing that they give birth to strifes.

But the servant of the Lord must not strive, but to be gentle to all, apt to teach, patient,

having a form of godliness, but denying the power of it; even turn away from these.

But as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so these also resist the truth, men of corrupt mind, reprobate concerning the faith.

But they shall proceed no further. For their foolishness shall be plain to all, as theirs also became.

But you have fully known my doctrine, manner of life, purpose, faith, long-suffering, love, patience,

persecutions, afflictions, such as happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra. What persecutions I endured! But the Lord delivered me out of all.

But evil men and seducers will go forward to worse, deceiving and being deceived.

But continue in the things that you have learned and have been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them,

For a time will be when they will not endure sound doctrine, but they will heap up teachers to themselves according to their own lusts, tickling the ear.

But you watch in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fully carry out your ministry.

Now there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, shall give me at that Day; and not to me only, but also to all those who love His appearing.

At my first answer no one was beside me, but all deserted me. May it not be laid to their charge.

But the Lord stood with me and strengthened me, that through me the preaching might be fulfilled, and that all the nations might hear. And I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.

Erastus stayed at Corinth, but Trophimus I left sick at Miletus.

but revealed His Word in its own times in a proclamation, with which I was entrusted by the command of God our Savior,)

but hospitable, a lover of good, discreet, just, holy, temperate,

To the pure all things are pure. But to those who are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure, but even their mind and conscience is defiled.

They profess that they know God, but in their works they deny Him, being abominable and disobedient and reprobate to every good work.

But you speak the things which become sound doctrine:

not stealing, but showing all good faith, so that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior in all things.

to speak evil of no one, not being quarrelsome, but forbearing, showing all meekness to all men.

But when the kindness and love of God our Savior toward man appeared,

not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit,

But avoid foolish questions and genealogies and contentions, and strivings about the Law, for they are unprofitable and vain.

he who was once worthless to you, but now useful to you and to me; whom I sent back to you.

But without your consent I was willing to do nothing, that your good should not be of necessity, but willingly.

not now as a slave, but beyond a slave, a beloved brother, especially to me, but how much more to you, both in the flesh and in the Lord.

But at once prepare lodging for me, for I hope that through your prayers I shall be given to you.

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

They shall perish, but You will remain. And they shall all become old as a garment,

and as a covering You shall fold them up, and they shall be changed. But You are the same, and Your years shall not fail."

But to which of the angels, did He say at any time, "Sit on My right hand until I make Your enemies Your footstool?"

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?

You subjected all things under his feet." For in subjecting all things to Him, He did not leave anything not subjected to Him. But now we do not see all things having been subjected to him.

But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor, that He by the grace of God should taste death for all.

For truly He did not take the nature of angels, but He took hold of the seed of Abraham.

For every house is built by someone, but He who built all things is God.

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.

But with whom was He grieved forty years? Was it not with those who had sinned, whose carcasses fell in the wilderness?

And to whom did He swear that they should not enter into His rest, but to those who did not believe?

For also we have had the gospel preached, as well as them. But the Word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard it.

Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in His sight, but all things are naked and opened to the eyes of Him with whom we have to do.

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.

And no man takes this honor to himself, but he who is called of God, as Aaron was.

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."

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

But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you and things that accompany salvation, though we speak in this way.

that you be not slothful, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.

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.

But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes from Abraham and blessed him who had the promises.

And here men who die receive tithes; but there he receives them, of whom it is witnessed that he lives.

who is made, not according to the law of a fleshly commandment, but according to the power of an endless life.

For the Law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did, by which we draw near to God.

(for those priests were made without an oath, but this one was made with an oath by Him who said to Him, "The Lord swore and will not repent, You are a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek,")

but He, because He continues forever, has an unchangeable priesthood.

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.

But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, by so much He is also the Mediator of a better covenant, which was built upon better promises.

But once in the year into the second the high priest goes alone, not without blood, which he offered for himself and for the errors of the people)

But when Christ had become a high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building

nor by the blood of goats and calves, but by His own blood He entered once for all into the Holies, having obtained eternal redemption for us.

Therefore it was necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these, but the heavenly things themselves were purified with better sacrifices than these.

For Christ has not entered into the Holy of Holies made with hands, which are the figures of the true, but into Heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us.

(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.

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

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

Therefore when He comes into the world, He says, "Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, but You have prepared a body for Me.

But this Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right of God,

not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

but a certain fearful looking for judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.

But call to memory the former days, in which (after you were illuminated) you endured a great fight of afflictions,

Now, "the Just shall live by faith. But if he draws back, My soul shall have no pleasure in him."

But we are not of those withdrawing to destruction, but of those who believe to the preserving of the soul.

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

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.

But now they stretch forth to a better fatherland, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.

But if you are without chastisement, of which all are partakers, then you are bastards and not sons.

For truly they chastened us for a few days according to their own pleasure, but He for our profit, that we might be partakers of His holiness.

Now chastening for the present does not seem to be joyous, but grievous. Nevertheless afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who are exercised by it.

And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way, but let it rather be healed.

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,

whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, "Yet once more I will not only shake the earth, but also the heavens."

Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled, but fornicators and adulterers God will judge.

For here we have no continuing city, but we seek one to come.

But do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

But I beseech you the rather to do this, so that I may be more quickly restored to you.

But let patience have its perfect work, so that you may be perfect and entire, lacking nothing.

But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and with no reproach, and it shall be given to him.

But let him ask in faith, doubting nothing. For he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed.

But let the humble brother rejoice in his exaltation;

But each one is tempted by his lusts, being drawn away and seduced by them.
