HEBREWS 12: 1-29

Perseverance in the midst of trials, following the example of Christ

1 THEREFORE we too, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us leave all the embarrassment, and the sin that so closely surrounds us, and run with patience the career that is proposed to us,

2 Looking at Jesus, author and finisher of the faith, who, for the joy that was proposed to him, endured the cross, despising affront, and sat at the right hand of God's throne.

3 Consider therefore the one who endured such contradictions of sinners against himself, lest you weaken, fainting in your spirits.

4 You have not yet resisted even the blood, fighting against sin.

5 And you have forgotten the exhortation that he argues with you as children: My son, do not despise the Lord's correction, And do not faint when you are rebuked by him;

6 For the Lord corrects what he loves, And whips anyone who receives as a son.

7 If you endure correction, God treats you like children; why, what son is there that the father does not correct?

8 But if you are without discipline, of which everyone is made a participant, then you are bastards, not children.

9 Furthermore, we had our parents according to the flesh, to correct us, and we revere them; will we not be subject much more to the Father of spirits, to live?

10 For those, in fact, for a little while, corrected us as it seemed to them; but this one, for our benefit, to be partakers of his holiness.

11 And, in truth, all correction, at present, does not seem to be joy, but sadness, but then it produces a peaceful fruit of justice in those exercised by it.

Exhortation to holiness: several precepts

12 Therefore, raise your tired hands again, and your knees disjointed,

13 And make straight paths for your feet, so that what limps does not deviate entirely, but is healed.

4 Follow peace with all, and sanctification, without which no one will see the Lord;

15 Being careful that no one is deprived of the grace of God, and that no root of bitterness, springing up, disturbs you, and many are defiled by it.

16 And no one is wanton, or profane, like Esau, who sold his birthright for a meal.

17 For you know that when he wanted to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, because he found no place for repentance, even though he sought it with tears.

18 For you have not reached the palpable mountain, lit by fire, and the darkness, and the darkness, and the storm,

19 And to the sound of the trumpet, and to the voice of words, which those who heard asked them not to speak to them anymore;

20 For they could not endure what they were told: If even an animal touches the mountain, it will be stoned or thrown with a dart.

21 And the vision was so terrible, that Moses said, I am all astonished, and trembling.

22 But you came to Mount Zion, and to the city of the living God, to heavenly Jerusalem, and to the many thousands of angels;

23 To the universal assembly and church of the firstborn, who are inscribed in the heavens, and to God, the judge of all, and to the spirits of the perfected righteous;

24 And to Jesus, the Mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkling blood, which speaks better than Abel's.

25 See that you do not reject what you speak; because if those who rejected what on earth warned them did not escape, much less we, if we turn away from him who is from heaven;

26 The voice of which then moved the earth, but now announced, saying, Once again I will be moved, not only the earth, but also the sky.

27 And this word: Once again, it shows the change of movable things, like things made, so that the buildings remain.

28 Therefore, having received a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us retain grace, by which we serve God pleasantly, with reverence and godliness;

29 For our God is a consuming fire.
