'Us' in the Bible

in these last days he has spoken to us by a Son, whom he appointed heir of all [things], through whom also he made the world,

how will we escape [if we] neglect so great a salvation which had [its] beginning [when it] was spoken through the Lord [and] was confirmed to us by those who heard,

Therefore let us fear, [while there] remains a promise of entering into his rest, that none of you appear to fall short of [it].

{For we also have had the good news proclaimed to us}, just as those also [did], but the message {they heard} did not benefit them, [because they] were not united with those who heard [it] in faith.

Therefore, let us make every effort to enter into that rest, in order that no one may fall in the same pattern of disobedience.

Therefore, [because we] have a great high priest who has gone through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast to our confession.

Therefore let us approach with confidence to the throne of grace, in order that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Therefore, leaving behind the elementary message about Christ, let us move on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and faith in God,

in order that through two unchangeable things, in which [it is] impossible for God to lie, we who have taken refuge may have powerful encouragement to hold fast to the hope set before [us],

where Jesus, the forerunner for us, entered, [because he] became a high priest {forever} according to the order of Melchizedek.

For a high priest such as this indeed is fitting for us, holy, innocent, undefiled, separated from sinners, and having become exalted [above] the heavens,

And the Holy Spirit also testifies to us, for after saying,

[by the] new and living way which he inaugurated for us through the curtain, that is, his flesh,

let us approach with a true heart in the full assurance of faith, our hearts sprinkled [clean] from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.

Let us hold fast to the confession of [our] hope without wavering, for the one who promised [is] faithful.

And let us think about {how to stir one another up to love} and good works,

[because] God had provided something better for us, so that they would not be made perfect without us.

Therefore, [since] we also have such a great cloud of witnesses surrounding us, putting aside every weight and {the sin that so easily ensnares us}, let us run with patient endurance the race that has been set before us,

Furthermore, we have had {our earthly fathers} who disciplined [us], and we respected [them]. Will we not much rather subject ourselves to the Father of spirits and live?

For they disciplined [us] for a few days according to what seemed [appropriate] to them, but he [does so] for our benefit, in order that [we] can have a share in his holiness.

Therefore, [since we] are receiving an unshakable kingdom, let us be thankful, through which let us serve God acceptably, with awe and reverence.

Therefore through him let us offer up a sacrifice of praise {continually} to God, that is, the fruit of lips that confess his name.

Pray for us, for we are convinced that we have a good conscience, [and] want to conduct ourselves commendably in every [way].

equip you with every good [thing] to do his will, carrying out in us [what is] pleasing before him through Jesus Christ, to whom [be] the glory {forever}. Amen.
