Hebrews 12:3-12

3For consider well him who enduredG5278 soG2443 great contradiction from sinnersG268 against himself, that ye be not weary, fainting in your mindsG5590.

4Ye have not yetG3768 resisted unto bloodG129, wrestling against sinG266.

5And ye have quite forgotten the exhortationG3874 which speaks to you as to sonsG5207: My sonG5207, despise not [the] chastening of [the] LordG2962, nor faintG1590 [whenG5613] reproved by him;

6for whom [the] LordG2962 lovesG25 he chastens, and scourges every sonG5207 whom he receivesG3858.

7Ye endureG5278 for chastening, 1GodG2316 conducts himself towards you as towards sonsG5207; for who is the sonG5207 that the fatherG3962 chastens not?

8But if ye areG1510 without chastening, of which all have beenG1510 made partakersG3353, then areG1510 ye bastards, and not sonsG5207.

9Moreover we have had the fathersG3962 of our fleshG4561 as chasteners, and we reverenced [them]; shall we not muchG4183 ratherG3123 be in subjectionG5293 to the FatherG3962 of spiritsG4151, and liveG2198?

10For they indeedG1063 chastened for a fewG3641 daysG2250, as seemedG1380 goodG1380 to them; but he for profit, in order to the partaking of his holiness.

11But no chastening at the time seemsG1380 to beG1510 [matter] of joyG5479, but of griefG3077; but afterwards yields [the] peaceful fruitG2590 of righteousnessG1343 to those exercised by it.

12Wherefore lift up the handsG5495 that hang down, and the failing kneesG1119;
