⁴ But when the fullness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, born of a woman, born under the law,

²⁰ which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places; ²¹ far above all government, and power, and might, and lordship, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come;

²¹ far above all government, and power, and might, and lordship, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come;

²¹ far above all government, and power, and might, and lordship, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come; ²² and subjected all things under his feet, and appointed him head over all things to the congregation,

²² and subjected all things under his feet, and appointed him head over all things to the congregation, ²³ which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all;

⁶ that the Gentiles should be fellow-heirs, and of the same body, and joint partakers of his promise in Christ by the gospel;

⁹ and to make all see what is the administration of the secret, which has been hid from the ages by God, who created all things.

⁹ And for this reason, God has exceedingly exalted him, and has bestowed on him a name which is above every name;

⁹ And for this reason, God has exceedingly exalted him, and has bestowed on him a name which is above every name; ¹⁰ that, at the name of Jesus, every knee should bow; of those in heaven, and upon the earth, and under the earth; ¹¹ and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

¹⁵ He is the image of the invisible God, the first born of the whole creation.

¹⁵ He is the image of the invisible God, the first born of the whole creation. ¹⁶ Because, by him were created all things which are in the heavens, and which are upon the earth; things visible, and things invisible; whether thrones, or lordships, or governments, or powers; all things were created by him and for him.

¹⁶ Because, by him were created all things which are in the heavens, and which are upon the earth; things visible, and things invisible; whether thrones, or lordships, or governments, or powers; all things were created by him and for him. ¹⁷ And he is before all things; and by him all things consist.

¹⁷ And he is before all things; and by him all things consist. ¹⁸ And he is the head of the body, even the congregation. He is the beginning, the first born from the dead, that in all respects he might be pre-eminent.

⁷ and to you, the afflicted, (because our testimony was believed by you,) rest with us, at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven, with his mighty angels, in flaming fire,

¹⁶ And, confessedly, great is the secret of godliness; -he who has manifested in the flesh, justified in the Spirit; seen of messengers, proclaimed to the Gentiles, believed on in the world, taken up in glory.

¹³ expecting the blessed hope; namely, the appearing of the glory of the great God, and of our Saviour Jesus Christ; ¹⁴ who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify to himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

⁷ that being justified by his favor, we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

³ who, being in effulgence of his glory, and an exact representation of his character, and controlling all things by his own powerful word, after he had, by himself, made expiation for our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high;

⁵ For, to which of the angels did he at any time say, "Thou art my Son: today I have begotten thee"? and again, "I will be his Father, and he shall be my Son"?

⁸ But to the Son, "Thy throne, O God, endures for ever. The scepter of thy kingdom is a scepter of rectitude. ⁹ Thou hast loved righteousness, and hated iniquity; therefore, God, thy God, has anointed thee with the oil of gladness, above thy associates."

¹⁴ "Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall inherit salvation?"

² For if the word spoken by angels was firm, and every transgression and disobedience received a just retribution; ³ how shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation? which, beginning to be spoken by the Lord, was confirmed to us by them who heard him;

⁸ thou hast put all things under his feet." Now, by putting all things in subjection to him, he left nothing that is not subject to him; but now, we do not yet see all things subjected to him; ⁹ but we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, that he, by the favor of God, might taste death for all; for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor!

⁹ but we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, that he, by the favor of God, might taste death for all; for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honor!

¹¹ For both he who sanctifies, and they who are sanctified, are all of one Father; for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren;

³ Indeed, he has been accounted worthy of glory, as far superior to Moses, as that of the builder is superior to the house. ⁴ Now every house is built by some one; but he, the builder of all things, is God.

¹⁴ Now, having a great High Priest, who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.

⁵ so, also, Christ did not assume to himself the honor of being a High Priest: but he who said to him, "Thou art my Son, today I have begotten thee"-

⁸ though being a Son, learned obedience by the things which he suffered; ⁹ and being made perfect, became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey him;

¹² that you may not be slothful, but imitators of them who, through faith and patience, are inheriting the promises.

¹⁷ Therefore, God, willing more abundantly to show to their heirs of promise the immutability of his purpose, confirmed it with an oath;

³ was without father, without mother, without genealogy, having neither beginnings of days, nor end of life: but, being made like the Son of God, he remains a priest continually.

²⁶ Now such a High Priest became us; who, being holy, harmless, undefiled, separated from sinners, and made higher than the heavens, ²⁷ has not, like the high priests, need, from time to time, to offer sacrifices, first for his own sins, then for those of the people; for this latter he did once, when he offered himself up.

¹ Now of the things which we have spoken, this is the sum: We have such a High Priest, who has taken his seat at the right hand of the Majesty in the heavens-

⁶ Besides, he has now obtained a more excellent ministry, inasmuch as he is the mediator of a better institution, which has been established upon better promises.

¹² entered once into the holy places, having obtained eternal redemption; not indeed, by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood. ¹³ For if the blood of bulls and goats, and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling the polluted, sanctified to the cleansing of the flesh, ¹⁴ how much more shall the blood of Christ, who, through an Eternal Spirit, offered himself without fault, to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?

¹⁶ Now, where there is such an institution, the death of the instituted sacrifice must necessarily intervene:

²⁶ for then he must have often sufferance since the foundation of the world: but now, once, at the conclusion of the ages, he has been manifested to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

⁵ Wherefore, when coming into the world, he says, "Sacrifice and offering thou hast not willed; but a body hast thou prepared me.

¹¹ And, indeed, every priest stands, daily ministering, and offering often the same sacrifices, which never can take away sins: ¹² but he, having offered only one sacrifice for sins, through his whole life, sat down at the right hand of God;

¹² but he, having offered only one sacrifice for sins, through his whole life, sat down at the right hand of God; ¹³ thenceforth waiting till his enemies be made his footstool.

³ By faith, we understand that the worlds were formed by the word of God; so that the things which were seen, were not made of things which do appear.

² looking to Jesus, the leader and perfecter of the faith; who, for the joy that was set before him, endured the cross, despising the shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

²⁷ Now this speech, "YET ONCE," signifies the removing of the things shaken, as of things which were constituted, that the things not shaken may remain.

⁸ Jesus Christ is the same, yesterday, and today, and for ever.

¹⁷ every good gift, and every perfect gift, is from above, descended from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variableness, nor shadow of turning.

⁵ Hearken, beloved brethren: Has not God chosen the poor of the world-rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he has promised to them who love him?

³ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who, according to his great mercy, has regenerated us to a lively hope, through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, ⁴ to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled, and unfading, preserved in the heavens for us;

¹⁰ Concerning which salvation, the prophets inquired accurately, and searched diligently, who have prophesied concerning the favor bestowed on you; ¹¹ searching diligently of what things, and what kind of time, the Spirit of Christ, who was in them, did signify, when he testified before the sufferings of Christ, and the glories following these- ¹² to whom it was revealed, that, not for themselves, but for us, they ministered these things; which have now been reported to you, by them who have declared the glad tidings to you, with the Holy Spirit sent down from heaven: into which things, angels earnestly desire to look attentively.

¹² to whom it was revealed, that, not for themselves, but for us, they ministered these things; which have now been reported to you, by them who have declared the glad tidings to you, with the Holy Spirit sent down from heaven: into which things, angels earnestly desire to look attentively.

²⁰ predetermined, indeed, before the foundation of the world, but manifested in these last times for you; ²¹ who through him, believe in God, who raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory, that your faith and hope might be in God.

¹¹ and thus there shall be richly ministered to you, an entrance into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

¹⁶ For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eye-witnesses of his grandeur;

²⁰ Knowing this first, that no prophecy brought by the will of man; ²¹ but the holy men of God spoke, being moved by the Holy Spirit.

³ Knowing this first, that scoffers will come in the last days, walking after their own lusts,

⁷ But the present heavens and the earth, by the same word are treasured up, being kept for fire to a day of judgment, and destruction of ungodly men. ⁸ But this one thing, let it not escape you, beloved, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. ⁹ The Lord does not delay his promise in the manner some account delaying; but he exercises long-suffering toward us, not desiring that any should perish, but that all should come to reformation. ¹⁰ However, as thief, the day of the Lord will come; in which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements burning shall be dissolved; and the earth, and the works that are upon it, shall be utterly burned.

³ that which we have seen and heard, we declare to you; that you also may have fellowship with us: and our fellowship truly is with the Father, and with his Son, Jesus Christ.

⁷ But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light; we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ the Son cleanses us from all sin.

⁵ Moreover, you know that he was manifested that he might take away our sins-and in him is no sin.

⁹ By this the love of God was manifested to us, that God sent forth his Son, the only begotten, into the world, that we might live through him.

²⁰ Moreover, we know that the Son of God has come, and has given us understanding, that we might know him that is true; and we are in him that is true-in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and the eternal life.

¹⁴ Now, Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied, indeed, concerning these men; saying, "Behold, the Lord comes with his myriads of holy angels,

¹⁸ that they said to you, that in the last time there would be scoffers walking according to their own ungodly lusts.

²⁵ to God, alone our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now, and throughout all ages. Amen.

⁵ and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the first born of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth; to him who has loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,

¹¹ saying, What you see, write in a book, and send it to the seven congregations; to Ephesus, and to Smyrna, and to Pergamos, and to Thyatira, and to Sardis, and to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.

¹⁷ And when I saw him, I fell down at his feet, as dead; and he laid his right hand upon me, and said, Fear not; I am the First and the Last; ¹⁸ I am he who lives and was dead; and behold, I am living for ever and ever; and I have the keys of the unseen world, and of death.

⁶ Yet you have this, that you hate the works of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate. ⁷ Whoever has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the congregations. To him who conquers, I will give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God. ⁸ And by the messenger of the congregation in Smyrna, write: These things, says the First and the Last, who was dead, and is alive:

¹⁵ You, in like manner, have those that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which I hate.

¹⁴ And by the messenger of the congregation in Laodicea, write: These things says the AMEN, the Faithful and true Witness, the Beginning of the creation of God:

²¹ As for the conqueror, I will give him to sit down with me upon my throne; as I also have conquered, and sat down with my Father upon his throne.

¹¹ Worthy art thou, O Lord, to receive glory, and honor, and power; for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are, and were created.

⁶ And I beheld, in the middle space, between the throne and the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, there stood a Lamb, which seemed to have been slain, having seven horns, and seven eyes; these are the seven Spirits of God, sent forth into all the earth.

⁹ And they sung a new song, saying, Worthy art thou to take the scroll, and to open the seals of it; for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood, out of every tribe, and language, and people, and nation; ¹⁰ and hast made us, to our God, kings and priests: and we shall reign on earth. ¹¹ And I beheld, and heard the voice of many angels round about the throne, and of the living creatures, and of the elders: and the number of them was myriads of myriads, and thousands of thousands; ¹² saying, with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain, to receive power and riches, and wisdom, and might, and honor, and glory, and blessing!

¹¹ And I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse; and he that sat upon it was called Faithful and True; and he judges and makes war in righteousness: ¹² whose eyes are as a flame of fire; and many diadems were upon his head, having a name written which no man knows but himself: ¹³ and he was clothed in a garment dipped in blood, and his name is called THE WORD OF GOD. ¹⁴ And the armies which are in heaven followed him, riding on white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. ¹⁵ And there went out of his mouth a sharp sword, that with it he might smite the nations: and he shall govern them with a rod of iron; and he treads the wine press of the indignation and wrath of almighty God. ¹⁶ And he has upon his garment and his thigh a name written- KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS. ¹⁷ And I saw a single angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the birds of prey, which were flying in the midst of heaven, Come, and assemble yourselves to the great supper of God: ¹⁸ that you may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of commanders, and the flesh of the mighty, and the flesh of horses, and of those that sat on them; and the flesh of all, both freemen and slaves, both small and great. ¹⁹ And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies gathered together to make war with him who sits upon the white horse, and with his army. ²⁰ And the beast was taken captive, and with him the false prophet, who had wrought signs before him, by which he deceived those who received the mark of the beast, and those who worshiped his image; both of whom were cast alive into the lake of fire which burned with brimstone. ²¹ And the rest were slain with the sword that came out of the mouth of him who sat on the horse: and all the birds were satiated with their flesh.

¹¹ And I saw a great white throne, and him who sat on it, from whose face earth and heaven fled away, and there was found no place for them.

¹⁵ And if any one was not found written in the book of life, he was cast into the lake of fire.

¹ And I saw a new heaven, and a new earth; for the former heaven and the former earth were passed away: and the sea was no more.
