Hebrews 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,
|
Hebrews 10:2
|
since, would they not have ceased to be offered, because of those serving having no more conscience of sins, having once been purified?
|
Hebrews 10:3
|
but in those [sacrifices] is a remembrance of sins every year,
|
Hebrews 10:4
|
for it is impossible for blood of bulls and goats to take away sins.
|
Hebrews 10:5
|
Wherefore, coming into the world, he saith, `Sacrifice and offering Thou didst not will, and a body Thou didst prepare for me,
|
Hebrews 10:6
|
in burnt-offerings, and concerning sin-offerings, Thou didst not delight,
|
Hebrews 10:7
|
then I said, Lo, I come, (in a volume of the book it hath been written concerning me,) to do, O God, Thy will;'
|
Hebrews 10:8
|
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 --
|
Hebrews 10:9
|
then he said, `Lo, I come to do, O God, Thy will;' he doth take away the first that the second he may establish;
|
Hebrews 10:10
|
in the which will we are having been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once,
|
Hebrews 10:11
|
and every priest, indeed, hath stood daily serving, and the same sacrifices many times offering, that are never able to take away sins.
|
Hebrews 10:12
|
And He, for sin one sacrifice having offered -- to the end, did sit down on the right hand of God, --
|
Hebrews 10:13
|
as to the rest, expecting till He may place his enemies [as] his footstool,
|
Hebrews 10:14
|
for by one offering he hath perfected to the end those sanctified;
|
Hebrews 10:15
|
and testify to us also doth the Holy Spirit, for after that He hath said before,
|
Hebrews 10:16
|
`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,'
|
Hebrews 10:17
|
and `their sins and their lawlessness I will remember no more;'
|
Hebrews 10:18
|
and where forgiveness of these [is], there is no more offering for sin.
|
Hebrews 10:19
|
Having, therefore, brethren, boldness for the entrance into the holy places, in the blood of Jesus,
|
Hebrews 10:20
|
which way he did initiate for us -- new and living, through the vail, that is, his flesh --
|
Hebrews 10:21
|
and a high priest over the house of God,
|
Hebrews 10:22
|
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;
|
Hebrews 10:23
|
may we hold fast the unwavering profession of the hope, (for faithful [is] He who did promise),
|
Hebrews 10:24
|
and may we consider one another to provoke to love and to good works,
|
Hebrews 10:25
|
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.
|
Hebrews 10:26
|
For we -- willfully sinning after the receiving the full knowledge of the truth -- no more for sins doth there remain a sacrifice,
|
Hebrews 10:27
|
but a certain fearful looking for of judgment, and fiery zeal, about to devour the opposers;
|
Hebrews 10:28
|
any one who did set at nought a law of Moses, apart from mercies, by two or three witnesses, doth die,
|
Hebrews 10:29
|
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?
|
Hebrews 10:30
|
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;' --
|
Hebrews 10:31
|
fearful [is] the falling into the hands of a living God.
|
Hebrews 10:32
|
And call to your remembrance the former days, in which, having been enlightened, ye did endure much conflict of sufferings,
|
Hebrews 10:33
|
partly both with reproaches and tribulations being made spectacles, and partly having become partners of those so living,
|
Hebrews 10:34
|
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.
|
Hebrews 10:35
|
Ye may not cast away, then, your boldness, which hath great recompense of reward,
|
Hebrews 10:36
|
for of patience ye have need, that the will of God having done, ye may receive the promise,
|
Hebrews 10:37
|
for yet a very very little, He who is coming will come, and will not tarry;
|
Hebrews 10:38
|
and `the righteous by faith shall live,' and `if he may draw back, My soul hath no pleasure in him,'
|
Hebrews 10:39
|
and we are not of those drawing back to destruction, but of those believing to a preserving of soul.
