Hebrews 12:4-17

4Ye haveG478 not yetG3768 resistedG478 untoG3360 bloodG129, strivingG464 againstG4314 sinG3588G266.

5AndG2532 ye have forgottenG1585 the exhortationG3588G3874 whichG3748 speakethG1256 unto youG4771 asG5613 unto childrenG5207, MyG1473 sonG5207, despiseG3643 notG3361 thouG3643 the chasteningG3809 of the LordG2962, norG3366 faintG1590 when thou art rebukedG1651 ofG5259 himG846: 6ForG1063 whomG3739 the LordG2962 lovethG25 he chastenethG3811, andG1161 scourgethG3146 everyG3956 sonG5207 whomG3739 he receivethG3858. 7IfG1487 ye endureG5278 chasteningG3809, GodG3588G2316 dealethG4374 with youG4771 asG5613 with sonsG5207; forG1063 whatG5101 sonG5207 is heG1510 whomG3739 the fatherG3962 chastenethG3811 notG3756? 8ButG1161 ifG1487 ye beG1510 withoutG5565 chastisementG3809, whereofG3739 allG3956 areG1096 partakersG3353, thenG686 are yeG1510 bastardsG3541, andG2532 notG3756 sonsG5207. 9FurthermoreG1534 we have hadG2192 fathersG3962 ofG3588G4561 ourG1473 fleshG3588G4561 which correctedG3810 us, andG2532 we gaveG1788 them reverenceG1788: shall weG5293 notG3756 muchG4183 ratherG3123 be in subjection untoG5293 the FatherG3588G3962 of spiritsG3588G4151, andG2532 liveG2198? 10ForG1063 theyG3811 verilyG3588G3303 forG4314 a fewG3641 daysG2250 chastenedG3811 us afterG2596 their ownG846 pleasureG3588G1380; butG1161 heG3588 forG1909 our profitG3588G4851, thatG1519 we might be partakersG3588G3335 ofG3588G41 hisG846 holinessG3588G41. 11NowG1161 noG3756 chasteningG3809 forG4314 the presentG3588G3918 seemethG1380 to beG1510 joyousG5479, butG235 grievousG3077: neverthelessG1161 afterwardG5305 it yieldethG591 theG2590 peaceableG1516 fruitG2590 of righteousnessG1343 unto them which are exercisedG3588G1128 therebyG1223G846. 12WhereforeG1352 lift upG461 the handsG5495 which hang downG3935, andG2532 theG1119 feebleG3886 kneesG1119; 13AndG2532 makeG4160 straightG3717 pathsG5163 forG3588G4228 yourG4771 feetG3588G4228, lestG3361 that which is lameG5560 be turned out of the wayG1624; butG1161 let itG2390 ratherG3123 be healedG2390.

14FollowG1377 peaceG1515 withG3326 allG3956 men, andG2532 holinessG3588G38, withoutG5565 whichG3739 no manG3762 shall seeG3708 the LordG3588G2962: 15Looking diligentlyG1983 lestG3361 any manG5100 failG5302 ofG575 the graceG3588G5485 of GodG3588G2316; lestG3361 anyG5100 rootG4491 of bitternessG4088 springingG5453 upG507 troubleG1776 you, andG2532 therebyG1223G3778 manyG4183 be defiledG3392; 16Lest thereG3361 be anyG5100 fornicatorG4205, orG2228 profane personG952, asG5613 EsauG2269, whoG3739 forG473 oneG1520 morsel of meatG1035 soldG591 hisG846 birthrightG3588G4415. 17ForG1063 ye knowG1492 how thatG3754 afterwardG3347, when he would haveG2309 inheritedG2816 the blessingG3588G2129, he was rejectedG593: forG1063 he foundG2147 noG3756 placeG5117 of repentanceG3341, thoughG2539 he soughtG1567 itG846 carefullyG1567 withG3326 tearsG1144.
