the mystery which has been hidden from the ages and from the generations, but was now made manifest to His saints;

having been rooted and being built up in Him, and being established in the faith as ye were taught, abounding with thanksgiving.

and ye have been made complete in Him, Who is the Head of all principality and power;

having been buried with Him in your immersion, in which ye were also raised with Him through faith in the working of God, Who raised Him from the dead;

for ye died, and your life has been hid with Christ in God.

but, having suffered before, and having been shamefully treated, as ye know, in Philippi, we grew bold in our God to speak to you the Gospel of God in much conflict.

but even as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the Gospel, so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, Who proveth our hearts.

But we, brethren, having been bereft of you for a short season, in presence, not in heart, endeavored the more exceedingly to see your face, with great desire.

Let a widow be enrolled, when she has become not less than sixty years old, having been a wife of one man,

Nevertheless, the firm foundation of God has been standing, having this seal, "The Lord knew those who are His:" and "Let every one who names the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness."

and they may return to soberness out of the snare of the Devil, having been taken captive by him in accordance with his will.

that having been justified by His grace, we might become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

knowing that such a one has been turned aside, and is sinning, being self-condemned.

For I had much joy and consolation on account of your love, because the tender affections of the saints have been refreshed through you, brother.

how shall we escape, having neglected so great salvation; which, indeed, having at first been spoken through the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard;

For This One has been accounted worthy of more glory than Moses, by as much as He Who built the house hath more honor than the house;

For, indeed, we have had the Gospel proclaimed to us, even as also they; but the word which they heard did not profit them, not having been mingled with faith on the part of those who heard.

again He designateth a certain day, "To-day" (saying in David, after so long a time, as has been before said), "To-day, if ye hear His voice, harden not your hearts."

for we have not a High Priest, unable to sympathize with our infirmities, but One Who hath been tempted in all points like as we, apart from sin.

Who, in the days of His flesh, having offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears to Him Who was able to save Him from death, and having been heard by reason of His godly fear,

and, having been made perfect, He became the Author of eternal life to all who obey Him;

having been addressed by God as "High Priest according to the rank of Melchizedek."

Who hath been made Priest, not according to a law of a carnal commandment, but according to the power of an endless life;

(for they, indeed, have been made priests without an oath; but He with an oath through Him Who said to Him, "The Lord swore, and will not repent, Thou art a Priest forever");

And they, indeed, have been made priests many in number, because by death they are hindered from continuing;

who, indeed, serve in the copy and shadow of the heavenly things, as Moses has been divinely warned, when about to make the tabernacle; for "See," saith He, "that you make all things according to the pattern which was showed you in the mount";

but now he hath obtained a more excellent ministry, by as much also as He is Mediator of a better covenant, which, indeed, has been enacted on better promises.

For, if that first covenant had been faultless, place would not be sought for a second;

Now, these things having been thus prepared, the priests go continually into the first tabernacle, accomplishing the services;

the Holy Spirit signifying this, that the way into the Holies has not yet been made manifest, while the first tabernacle is yet standing;

And, for this cause, He is the Mediator of a new covenant, that, death having taken place for redemption from the transgressions against the first covenant, those who have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance.

Wherefore, not even has the first covenant been dedicated without blood;

for, when every commandment had been spoken by Moses to all the people according to the law, taking the blood of the calves and of the goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, he sprinkled both the book itself and all the people,

else had it been needful for Him ofttimes to suffer since the founding of a world; but now, once for all, at the end of the ages, He hath been manifested for the putting away of sin through the sacrifice of Himself.

so also Christ, having once for all been offered to bear the sins of many, will, to those who are eagerly waiting for Him; appear a second time apart from sin, unto salvation.

else would they not have ceased to be offered? because the worshipers, having been cleansed once for all, would have had no more conscience of sins.

Then said I, 'Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it has been written concerning Me), to do Thy will, O God.'"

in which will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

By faith we perceive that the ages have been constituted by the word of God, so that what is seen has not arisen out of things that appear.

And, if, indeed, they had been mindful of that country from which they went out, they would have had opportunity to return.

By faith the walls of Jericho fell, having been compassed about for seven days.

All chastening, indeed, for the present seems not to be joyous, but grievous; but afterward it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained thereby.

But the expression, "Yet once more," signifies the removal of the things shaken, as of things that have been made, that the things that are not shaken may remain.

Know ye that our brother Timothy has been set at liberty; with whom, if he come shortly, I will see you.

For every nature, both of wild beasts and birds, both of creeping things and things in the sea, is tamed, and has been tamed, by mankind;

Therewith we bless the Lord and Father; and therewith we curse men, who have been made after the likeness of God.

Who is on the right hand of God, having gone into Heaven, angels and authorities and powers having been made subject to Him.

through which have been given to us very great and precious promises, that through these ye may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped from the corruption that is in the world in lust:

I write to you, little children, because your sins have been forgiven you for His name's sake.

They went out from among us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would have continued with us; but they went out, that they might be made manifest, that they are not all of us.

If ye know that He is righteous, ye know that every one that does righteousness has been begotten of Him.

Whosoever has been begotten of God sins not; because His seed abides in him, and he cannot sin because he has been begotten of God.

Beloved, let us love one another; because love is of God, and every one that loves has been begotten of God, and knows God.

No one has ever beheld God. If we love one another, God abideth in us, and His love has been perfected in us.

In this has love been made perfect with us, that we may have confidence in the day of judgment; because as He is, even so are we in this world.

Every one who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been begotten of God; and every one who loves Him Who begat loves him also that has been begotten of Him.

because all that has been begotten of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that overcomes the world, our faith.

To Demetrius testimony has been borne by all, and by the truth itself; and we also bear testimony, and you know that our testimony is true.

Many things I had to write to you; but I wish not to write to you with ink and pen;

wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own ignominies; wandering stars, for whom the blackness of the darkness has been reserved forever.

saying with a great voice, "Worthy is the Lamb Who hath been slain, to receive the power, and riches, and wisdom, and might, and honor, and glory, and blessing!"

And, when He opened the fifth seal, I saw, underneath the altar, the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God, and because of the testimony which they were holding.
