Hebrews 12:1

And therefore we also having so great a cloud of witnesses over our head, laying aside every weight and sin which surrounds us, let us run by patience to the fight proposed to us:

Therefore, surrounded as we are by such a vast cloud of witnesses, let us fling aside every encumbrance and the sin that so readily entangles our feet. And let us run with patient endurance the race that lies before us,

Therefore, we also having so great a cloud of witnesses set around us, every weight having put off, and the closely besetting sin, through endurance may we run the contest that is set before us,

Hebrews 12:2

Looking on Jesus, the author and finisher of faith, who having joy set before him, endured the cross, despising the shame, and now sitteth on the right hand of the throne of God.

simply fixing our gaze upon Jesus, our Prince Leader in the faith, who will also award us the prize. He, for the sake of the joy which lay before Him, patiently endured the cross, looking with contempt upon its shame, and afterwards seated Himself where He still sits at the right hand of the throne of God.

looking to the author and perfecter of faith Jesus, who, over-against the joy set before him did endure a cross, shame having despised, on the right hand also of the throne of God did sit down;

Hebrews 12:3

For think diligently upon him that endured such opposition from sinners against himself; that you be not wearied, fainting in your minds.

Therefore, if you would escape becoming weary and faint-hearted, compare your own sufferings with those of Him who endured such hostility directed against Him by sinners.

for consider again him who endured such gainsaying from the sinners to himself, that ye may not be wearied in your souls being faint.

Hebrews 12:4

For you have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin:

In your struggle against sin you have not yet resisted so as to endanger your lives;

Not yet unto blood did ye resist with the sin striving;

Hebrews 12:5

And you have forgotten the consolation, which speaketh to you, as unto children, saying: My son, neglect not the discipline of the Lord; neither be thou wearied whilst thou art rebuked by him.

and you have quite forgotten the encouraging words which are addressed to you as sons, and which say, "My son, do not think lightly of the Lord's discipline, and do not faint when He corrects you;

and ye have forgotten the exhortation that doth speak fully with you as with sons, `My son, be not despising chastening of the Lord, nor be faint, being reproved by Him,

Hebrews 12:6

For whom the Lord loveth, he chastiseth; and he scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.

for those whom the Lord loves He disciplines: and He scourges every son whom He acknowledges."

for whom the Lord doth love He doth chasten, and He scourgeth every son whom He receiveth;`

Hebrews 12:7

Persevere under discipline. God dealeth with you as with his sons; for what son is there, whom the father doth not correct?

The sufferings that you are enduring are for your discipline. God is dealing with you as sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline?

if chastening ye endure, as to sons God beareth Himself to you, for who is a son whom a father doth not chasten?

Hebrews 12:8

But if you be without chastisement, whereof all are made partakers, then are you bastards, and not sons.

And if you are left without discipline, of which every true son has had a share, that shows that you are bastards, and not true sons.

and if ye are apart from chastening, of which all have become partakers, then bastards are ye, and not sons.

Hebrews 12:9

Moreover we have had fathers of our flesh, for instructors, and we reverenced them: shall we not much more obey the Father of spirits, and live?

Besides this, our earthly fathers used to discipline us and we treated them with respect, and shall we not be still more submissive to the Father of our spirits, and live?

Then, indeed, fathers of our flesh we have had, chastising [us], and we were reverencing [them]; shall we not much rather be subject to the Father of the spirits, and live?

Hebrews 12:10

And they indeed for a few days, according to their own pleasure, instructed us: but he, for our profit, that we might receive his sanctification.

It is true that they disciplined us for a few years according as they thought fit; but He does it for our certain good, in order that we may become sharers in His own holy character.

for they, indeed, for a few days, according to what seemed good to them, were chastening, but He for profit, to be partakers of His separation;

Hebrews 12:11

Now all chastisement for the present indeed seemeth not to bring with it joy, but sorrow: but afterwards it will yield, to them that are exercised by it, the most peaceable fruit of justice.

Now, at the time, discipline seems to be a matter not for joy, but for grief; yet it afterwards yields to those who have passed through its training a result full of peace namely, righteousness.

and all chastening for the present, indeed, doth not seem to be of joy, but of sorrow, yet afterward the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those exercised through it it doth yield.

Hebrews 12:12

Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees,

Therefore strengthen the drooping hands and paralysed knees,

Wherefore, the hanging-down hands and the loosened knees set ye up;

and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be put entirely out of joint

Hebrews 12:14

Follow peace with all men, and holiness: without which no man shall see God.

but may rather be restored. Persistently strive for peace with all men, and for that growth in holiness apart from which no one will see the Lord.

peace pursue with all, and the separation, apart from which no one shall see the Lord,

Hebrews 12:15

Looking diligently, lest any man be wanting to the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up do hinder, and by it many be defiled.

Be carefully on your guard lest there be any one who falls back from the grace of God; lest any root bearing bitter fruit spring up and cause trouble among you, and through it the whole brotherhood be defiled;

looking diligently over lest any one be failing of the grace of God, lest any root of bitterness springing up may give trouble, and through this many may be defiled;

Hebrews 12:16

Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau; who for one mess, sold his first birthright.

lest there be a fornicator, or an ungodly person like Esau, who, in return for a single meal, parted with the birthright which belonged to him.

lest any one be a fornicator, or a profane person, as Esau, who in exchange for one morsel of food did sell his birthright,

Hebrews 12:17

For know ye that afterwards, when he desired to inherit the benediction, he was rejected; for he found no place of repentance, although with tears he had sought it.

For you know that even afterwards, when he wished to secure the blessing, he was rejected; for he found no opportunity for undoing what he had done, though he sought the blessing earnestly with tears.

for ye know that also afterwards, wishing to inherit the blessing, he was disapproved of, for a place of reformation he found not, though with tears having sought it.

For ye came not near to the mount touched and scorched with fire, and to blackness, and darkness, and tempest,

Hebrews 12:19

And the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words, which they that heard excused themselves, that the word might not be spoken to them:

a sound of such a kind that those who heard it entreated that no more should be added.

and a sound of a trumpet, and a voice of sayings, which those having heard did entreat that a word might not be added to them,

Hebrews 12:20

For they did not endure that which was said: And if so much as a beast shall touch the mount, it shall be stoned.

For they could not endure the order which had been given, "Even a wild beast, if it touches the mountain, shall be stoned to death;"

for they were not bearing that which is commanded, `And if a beast may touch the mountain, it shall be stoned, or with an arrow shot through,`

Hebrews 12:21

Hebrews 12:22

But you are come to mount Sion, and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to the company of many thousands of angels,

On the contrary you have come to Mount Zion, and to the city of the ever-living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, to countless hosts of angels,

But, ye came to Mount Zion, and to a city of the living God, to the heavenly Jerusalem, and to myriads of messengers,

Hebrews 12:23

And to the church of the firstborn, who are written in the heavens, and to God the judge of all, and to the spirits of the just made perfect,

to the company and assembly of the first-born in heaven enrolled, and to God the judge of all, and to spirits of righteous men made perfect,

Hebrews 12:24

And to Jesus the mediator of the new testament, and to the sprinkling of blood which speaketh better than that of Abel.

and to Jesus the negotiator of a new Covenant, and to the sprinkled blood which speaks in more gracious tones than that of Abel.

and to a mediator of a new covenant Jesus, and to blood of sprinkling, speaking better things than that of Abel!

Hebrews 12:25

See that you refuse him not that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spoke upon the earth, much more shall not we, that turn away from him that speaketh to us from heaven.

Be careful not to refuse to listen to Him who is speaking to you. For if they of old did not escape unpunished when they refused to listen to him who spoke on earth, much less shall we escape who turn a deaf ear to Him who now speaks from Heaven.

See, may ye not refuse him who is speaking, for if those did not escape who refused him who upon earth was divinely speaking much less we who do turn away from him who [speaketh] from heaven,

Hebrews 12:26

Whose voice then moved the earth; but now he promiseth, saying: Yet once more, and I will move not only the earth, but heaven also.

His voice then shook the earth, but now we have His promise, "Yet again I will, once for all, cause not only the earth to tremble, but Heaven also."

whose voice the earth shook then, and now hath he promised, saying, `Yet once I shake not only the earth, but also the heaven;`

Hebrews 12:27

And in that he saith, Yet once more, he signifieth the translation of the moveable things as made, that those things may remain which are immoveable.

Here the words "Yet again, once for all" denote the removal of the things which can be shaken created things in order that the things which cannot be shaken may remain.

and this `Yet once` doth make evident the removal of the things shaken, as of things having been made, that the things not shaken may remain;

Hebrews 12:28

wherefore, a kingdom that cannot be shaken receiving, may we have grace, through which we may serve God well-pleasingly, with reverence and religious fear;
