| [1]Because of this also we who have to us these all of them witnesses who like clouds surround us let us throw off from us all weights also the sin that always ready is for us and in patience let us run race this that is set for us |
[1]Wherfore, seyng that we are compassed with so great a cloude of witnesses, lay away all that presseth downe, & the sinne that hangeth so fast on, let vs run with patience vnto the battayle that is set before vs |
| [2]And let us gaze at Ieshu Him Who is The Author and The Perfecter of our faith Who for the joy that had He endured the cross and the shame He ignored and upon the right side of the throne of Alaha He sits |
[2]Lokyng vnto Iesus, the captayne and finissher of our fayth, which for the ioy that was set before hym, endured the crosse, hauyng dispised the shame, and is set downe on the ryght hande of the throne of God |
| [3]Behold therefore how much He endured from sinners those who themselves were opponents to their souls that not you become careless in yourselves neither weaken you your soul |
[3]Consider therfore hym that endured such speakyng agaynst hym of sinners, lest you shoulde be weryed, fayntyng in your myndes |
| [4]Not until now you have come as far as to blood in the struggle against sin |
[4]Ye haue not yet resisted vnto blood, stryuyng agaynst sinne |
| [5]And you have strayed from the teaching which as to sons says to you My son not turn away from the course of the Lord neither slacken your soul when by Him rebuked you are |
[5]And ye haue forgotten the exhortatio, which speaketh vnto you as vnto chyldren: My sonne despise not thou the chastenyng of the Lorde, neither faynt when thou art rebuked of hym |
| [6]Whomever whom loves for the Lord He instructs him and He draws aside children those He is pleased in whom |
[6]For whom the Lord loueth, he chasteneth, and scourgeth euery sonne that he receaueth |
| [7]Endure therefore the discipline because as with children deals with you Alaha who is? for the son not disciplines whom his father |
[7]If ye endure chastenyng, God offereth him selfe as vnto sonnes: For what sonne is he whom the father chasteneth not |
| [8]And if without discipline you are in which is disciplined every person you have been to you strangers and not children |
[8]But yf ye be without chastisment, wherof all are partakers, then are ye bastardes, and not sonnes |
| [9]And if our fathers who are in the flesh disciplined have us and revere we did them How much more? therefore are we indebted to submit to The Father of spirits and we would live |
[9]Furthermore, we haue had fathers of our fleshe, which corrected vs, and we gaue them reuerence: Shall we not then much rather be in subiection vnto the father of spirites, and lyue |
| [10]Those for for time that short as pleased they disciplined have us Alaha but for our benefit that we may share in His holiness |
[10]For they veryly, for a fewe dayes, chastened vs after their owne pleasure: but he, for our profite, that we myght be partakers of his holynesse |
| [11]All discipline but in its time not seems that joyful it is but sorrowful at the end but the fruit of peace and of righteousness it yields to those who by Him have been trained |
[11]No chashsyng for the present seemeth to be ioyous, but greeuous: Neuerthelesse, afterwarde it bryngeth the quiet fruite of ryghteousnesse, vnto the which are exercised therby |
| [12]Because of this your hands strengthen and your knees shaky set firmly |
[12]Strayghten vp therfore the handes which were let downe, and the weake knees |
| [13]And paths straight make for your feet that the member that is lame not may fail but it may be healed |
[13]And make ryght steppes vnto your feete, lest that which is haltyng, turne you out of the way: but let it rather be healed |
| [14]Run after peace with every man and after holiness without which a man our Lord not will see |
[14]Folowe peace with all men, and holynesse, without the which, no man shall see the Lorde |
| [15]And be watchful lest a man be found among you lacking of the grace of Alaha or lest a root of bitterness produce vines and harm you and by it many be defiled |
[15]Takyng heede that no man fall away from the grace of God, lest any roote of bitternesse spryngyng vp, trouble you, and therby many be defyled |
| [16]Or lest a man be found among you a fornicator or debauched as Esau who for one meal sold his birthright |
[16]Let there be no fornicator or vncleane person, as Esau, which for one morsell of meate, solde his birthryght |
| [17]Know you for that also from afterward desiring he was to inherit the blessing and was rejected a place for for restitution not he found while in tears he sought it |
[17]For ye knowe, howe that afterwarde when he woulde haue inherited the blessyng, he was reprobated: For he founde no place of repentaunce, though he sought it with teares |
| [18]Not for you have approached the fire that burned and was tangible neither to the darkness and the dark fog and the tempest |
[18]For ye are not come vnto the mount that is touched, & vnto burnyng fyre, and vnto storme and darkenesse, and tempestes of weather |
| [19]And not the sound of the trumpet and the voice of the words that which those who heard it refused lest it be added to be spoken with them |
[19]And sounde of a trompe, & the voyce of wordes: which [voyce] they that heard it, wisshed away, that the worde should not be spoken to them |
| [20]Not for able they were to endure anything that was commanded that if even an animal would approach to the mountain it would be stoned |
[20](For they dyd not abyde that which was commaunded. If a beast touche the mountaine, it shalbe stoned, or thrust through with a darte |
| [21]And so terrible was the sight that Moses said "afraid I and fainthearted am |
[21]And so terrible was the syght which appeared, that Moyses sayde, I feare and quake. |
| [22]You but you have come to The Mountain of Tsion and to The City of Alaha The Living to Jerusalem which is in Heaven and to the assembly of myriads of angels |
[22]But ye are come vnto ye mount Sion, and to the citie of the lyuyng God, the celestiall Hierusalem, and to an innumerable companie of Angels |
| [23]And to the church of the firstborn who are written in Heaven and to Alaha The Judge of all and to the spirits of the righteous who are made perfect |
[23]And vnto the congregation of the first borne, written in heauen, and to God the iudge of all, and to the spirites of iust and perfect men |
| [24]And to Ieshu The Mediator of the covenant new and to sprinkling of blood which speaks better than that of Habil |
[24]And to Iesus the mediatour of the newe couenaunt, and to the blood of sprinklyng, that speaketh better then that of Abel |
| [25]Beware therefore lest you refuse Him Who speaks with you if for those not were saved who refused him who spoke with them on earth how much less? are we if we shall refuse Him Who speaks with us from Heaven |
[25]See that ye despise not hym that speaketh: For yf they escaped not, which refused hym that spake on earth: much more shall we [not escape] yf we turne away from hym that [speaketh] from heauen |
| [26]Whose voice the earth shook now but He has promised and said "again one time I I shall shake not only earth but also Heaven |
[26]Whose voyce then shoke the earth, & nowe hath declared, saying: Yet once more wyll I shake, not the earth only, but also heauen |
| [27]This but that He said "one time" indicates the change of those things that are shaken because made they are that may remain those that not are shaken |
[27]And this [yet once more] signifieth remouyng of those thynges which are shaken, as of thynges which are made: that the thynges which are not shaken, may remayne |
| [28]Because therefore we have received the kingdom that not is shaken we shall receive grace by which we shall serve and we shall please to Alaha in awe and in worship |
[28]Wherfore, we receauyng a kingdome which can not be moued, let vs haue grace, wherby we may so serue God acceptablie, with reuerence & godly feare |
| [29]Our Alaha for fire is consuming |
[29]For our God [is] a consumyng fyre |
