Hebrews 12:12-17

12Therefore, strengthen your tired hands and weakened knees,

13and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be dislocated but healed instead.

14Pursue peace with everyone, and holiness  — without it no one will see the Lord.

15Make sure that no one falls short of the grace of God and that no root of bitterness springs up, causing trouble and defiling many.

16And make sure that there isn’t any immoral or irreverent person like Esau, who sold his birthright in exchange for a single meal.

17For you know that later, when he wanted to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, even though he sought it with tears, because he didn’t find any opportunity for repentance.
