The Epistle to the Hebrews

Chapter 10

1


 

  For the law having a shadow of the coming good things -- not the very image of the matters, every year, by the same sacrifices that they offer continually, is never able to make perfect those coming near,  

 

 

-

2


 

  since, would they not have ceased to be offered, because of those serving having no more conscience of sins, having once been purified?  

 

 

-

3


 

  but in those [sacrifices] is a remembrance of sins every year,  

 

 

-

4


 

  for it is impossible for blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.  

 

 

-

5


 

  Wherefore, coming into the world, he saith, 'Sacrifice and offering Thou didst not will, and a body Thou didst prepare for me,  

 

 

-

6


 

  in burnt-offerings, and concerning sin-offerings, Thou didst not delight,  

 

 

-

7


 

  then I said, Lo, I come, (in a volume of the book it hath been written concerning me,) to do, O God, Thy will;'  

 

 

-

8


 

  saying above -- 'Sacrifice, and offering, and burnt-offerings, and concerning sin-offering Thou didst not will, nor delight in,' -- which according to the law are offered --  

 

 

-

9


 

  then he said, 'Lo, I come to do, O God, Thy will;' he doth take away the first that the second he may establish;  

 

 

-

10


 

  in the which will we are having been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once,  

 

 

-

11


 

  and every priest, indeed, hath stood daily serving, and the same sacrifices many times offering, that are never able to take away sins.  

 

 

-

12


 

  And He, for sin one sacrifice having offered -- to the end, did sit down on the right hand of God, --  

 

 

-

13


 

  as to the rest, expecting till He may place his enemies [as] his footstool,  

 

 

-

14


 

  for by one offering he hath perfected to the end those sanctified;  

 

 

-

15


 

  and testify to us also doth the Holy Spirit, for after that He hath said before,  

 

 

-

16


 

  'This [is] the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, giving My laws on their hearts, and upon their minds I will write them,'  

 

 

-

17


 

  and 'their sins and their lawlessness I will remember no more;'  

 

 

-

18


 

  and where forgiveness of these [is], there is no more offering for sin.  

 

 

-

19


 

  Having, therefore, brethren, boldness for the entrance into the holy places, in the blood of Jesus,  

 

 

-

20


 

  which way he did initiate for us -- new and living, through the vail, that is, his flesh --  

 

 

-

21


 

  and a high priest over the house of God,  

 

 

-

22


 

  may we draw near with a true heart, in full assurance of faith, having the hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and having the body bathed with pure water;  

 

 

-

23


 

  may we hold fast the unwavering profession of the hope, (for faithful [is] He who did promise),  

 

 

-

24


 

  and may we consider one another to provoke to love and to good works,  

 

 

-

25


 

  not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as a custom of certain [is], but exhorting, and so much the more as ye see the day coming nigh.  

 

 

-

26


 

  For we -- willfully sinning after the receiving the full knowledge of the truth -- no more for sins doth there remain a sacrifice,  

 

 

-

27


 

  but a certain fearful looking for of judgment, and fiery zeal, about to devour the opposers;  

 

 

-

28


 

  any one who did set at nought a law of Moses, apart from mercies, by two or three witnesses, doth die,  

 

 

-

29


 

  of how much sorer punishment shall he be counted worthy who the Son of God did trample on, and the blood of the covenant did count a common thing, in which he was sanctified, and to the Spirit of the grace did despite?  

 

 

-

30


 

  for we have known Him who is saying, 'Vengeance [is] Mine, I will recompense, saith the Lord;' and again, 'The Lord shall judge His people;' --  

 

 

-

31


 

  fearful [is] the falling into the hands of a living God.  

 

 

-

32


 

  And call to your remembrance the former days, in which, having been enlightened, ye did endure much conflict of sufferings,  

 

 

-

33


 

  partly both with reproaches and tribulations being made spectacles, and partly having become partners of those so living,  

 

 

-

34


 

  for also with my bonds ye sympathised, and the robbery of your goods with joy ye did receive, knowing that ye have in yourselves a better substance in the heavens, and an enduring one.  

 

 

-

35


 

  Ye may not cast away, then, your boldness, which hath great recompense of reward,  

 

 

-

36


 

  for of patience ye have need, that the will of God having done, ye may receive the promise,  

 

 

-

37


 

  for yet a very very little, He who is coming will come, and will not tarry;  

 

 

-

38


 

  and 'the righteous by faith shall live,' and 'if he may draw back, My soul hath no pleasure in him,'  

 

 

-

39


 

  and we are not of those drawing back to destruction, but of those believing to a preserving of soul.
