1 Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us,
Τοιγαροῦν-καὶ-ημεῖς-,-τοσοῦτον-έχοντες-περικείμενον-ημῖν-νέφος-μαρτύρων-,-όγκον-αποθέμενοι-πάντα-καὶ-τὴν-ευπερίστατον-αμαρτίαν-,-δι᾿-υπομονῆς-τρέχωμεν-τὸν-προκείμενον-ημῖν-αγῶνα-,-
2 looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
αφορῶντες-εις-τὸν-τῆς-πίστεως-αρχηγὸν-καὶ-τελειωτὴν-Ιησοῦν-,-ὸς-αντὶ-τῆς-προκειμένης-αυτῶ-χαρᾶς-υπέμεινεν-σταυρὸν-αισχύνης-καταφρονήσας-,-εν-δεξιᾶ-τε-τοῦ-θρόνου-τοῦ-θεοῦ-κεκάθικεν-.-
3 For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, lest you become weary and discouraged in your souls.
αναλογίσασθε-γὰρ-τὸν-τοιαύτην-υπομεμενηκότα-υπὸ-τῶν-αμαρτωλῶν-εις-εαυτὸν-αντιλογίαν-,-ίνα-μὴ-κάμητε-ταῖς-ψυχαῖς-υμῶν-εκλυόμενοι-.-
4 You have not yet resisted to bloodshed, striving against sin.
Ούπω-μέχρις-αίματος-αντικατέστητε-πρὸς-τὴν-αμαρτίαν-ανταγωνιζόμενοι-,-
5 And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as to sons: “My son, do not despise the chastening of the LORD, Nor be discouraged when you are rebuked by Him;
καὶ-εκλέλησθε-τῆς-παρακλήσεως-,-ήτις-υμῖν-ως-υιοῖς-διαλέγεται-,-Υιέ-μου-,-μὴ-ολιγώρει-παιδείας-κυρίου-,-μηδὲ-εκλύου-υπ᾿-αυτοῦ-ελεγχόμενος-·-
6 For whom the LORD loves He chastens, And scourges every son whom He receives.”
ὸν-γὰρ-αγαπᾶ-κύριος-παιδεύει-,-μαστιγοῖ-δὲ-πάντα-υιὸν-ὸν-παραδέχεται-.-
7 If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom a father does not chasten?
εις-παιδείαν-υπομένετε-·-ως-υιοῖς-υμῖν-προσφέρεται-ο-θεός-·-τίς-γὰρ-υιὸς-ὸν-ου-παιδεύει-πατήρ-;-
8 But if you are without chastening, of which all have become partakers, then you are illegitimate and not sons.
ει-δὲ-χωρίς-εστε-παιδείας-ῆς-μέτοχοι-γεγόνασιν-πάντες-,-άρα-νόθοι-καὶ-ουχ-υιοί-εστε-.-
9 Furthermore, we have had human fathers who corrected us, and we paid them respect. Shall we not much more readily be in subjection to the Father of spirits and live?
εῖτα-τοὺς-μὲν-τῆς-σαρκὸς-ημῶν-πατέρας-είχομεν-παιδευτὰς-καὶ-ενετρεπόμεθα-·-ου-πολὺ-[-δὲ-]-μᾶλλον-υποταγησόμεθα-τῶ-πατρὶ-τῶν-πνευμάτων-καὶ-ζήσομεν-;-
10 For they indeed for a few days chastened us as seemed best to them, but He for our profit, that we may be partakers of His holiness.
οι-μὲν-γὰρ-πρὸς-ολίγας-ημέρας-κατὰ-τὸ-δοκοῦν-αυτοῖς-επαίδευον-,-ο-δὲ-επὶ-τὸ-συμφέρον-εις-τὸ-μεταλαβεῖν-τῆς-αγιότητος-αυτοῦ-.-
11 Now no chastening seems to be joyful for the present, but painful; nevertheless, afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.
πᾶσα-δὲ-παιδεία-πρὸς-μὲν-τὸ-παρὸν-ου-δοκεῖ-χαρᾶς-εῖναι-αλλὰ-λύπης-,-ύστερον-δὲ-καρπὸν-ειρηνικὸν-τοῖς-δι᾿-αυτῆς-γεγυμνασμένοις-αποδίδωσιν-δικαιοσύνης-.-
12 Therefore strengthen the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees,
Διὸ-τὰς-παρειμένας-χεῖρας-καὶ-τὰ-παραλελυμένα-γόνατα-ανορθώσατε-,-
13 and make straight paths for your feet, so that what is lame may not be dislocated, but rather be healed.
καὶ-τροχιὰς-ορθὰς-ποιεῖτε-τοῖς-ποσὶν-υμῶν-,-ίνα-μὴ-τὸ-χωλὸν-εκτραπῆ-,-ιαθῆ-δὲ-μᾶλλον-.-
14 Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord:
Ειρήνην-διώκετε-μετὰ-πάντων-,-καὶ-τὸν-αγιασμόν-,-οῦ-χωρὶς-ουδεὶς-όψεται-τὸν-κύριον-,-
15 looking carefully lest anyone fall short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up cause trouble, and by this many become defiled;
επισκοποῦντες-μή-τις-υστερῶν-απὸ-τῆς-χάριτος-τοῦ-θεοῦ-,-μή-τις-ρίζα-πικρίας-άνω-φύουσα-ενοχλῆ-καὶ-δι᾿-αυτῆς-μιανθῶσιν-πολλοί-,-
16 lest there be any fornicator or profane person like Esau, who for one morsel of food sold his birthright.
μή-τις-πόρνος-ὴ-βέβηλος-ως-Ησαῦ-,-ὸς-αντὶ-βρώσεως-μιᾶς-απέδοτο-τὰ-πρωτοτόκια-αυτοῦ-.-
17 For you know that afterward, when he wanted to inherit the blessing, he was rejected, for he found no place for repentance, though he sought it diligently with tears.
ίστε-γὰρ-ότι-καὶ-μετέπειτα-θέλων-κληρονομῆσαι-τὴν-ευλογίαν-απεδοκιμάσθη-,-μετανοίας-γὰρ-τόπον-ουχ-εῦρεν-,-καίπερ-μετὰ-δακρύων-εκζητήσας-αυτήν-.-
18 For you have not come to the mountain that may be touched and that burned with fire, and to blackness and darkness and tempest,
Ου-γὰρ-προσεληλύθατε-ψηλαφωμένω-[-όρει-]-καὶ-κεκαυμένω-πυρὶ-καὶ-γνόφω-καὶ-ζόφω-καὶ-θυέλλη-
19 and the sound of a trumpet and the voice of words, so that those who heard it begged that the word should not be spoken to them anymore.
καὶ-σάλπιγγος-ήχω-καὶ-φωνῆ-ρημάτων-,-ῆς-οι-ακούσαντες-παρητήσαντο-μὴ-προστεθῆναι-αυτοῖς-λόγον-·-
20 (For they could not endure what was commanded: “And if so much as a beast touches the mountain, it shall be stoned or shot with an arrow.”
ουκ-έφερον-γὰρ-τὸ-διαστελλόμενον-,-Κὰν-θηρίον-θίγη-τοῦ-όρους-,-λιθοβοληθήσεται-·-
21 And so terrifying was the sight that Moses said, “I am exceedingly afraid and trembling.”)
καί-,-ούτω-φοβερὸν-ῆν-τὸ-φανταζόμενον-,-Μωυσῆς-εῖπεν-,-Έκφοβός-ειμι-καὶ-έντρομος-.-
22 But you have come to Mount Zion and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, to an innumerable company of angels,
αλλὰ-προσεληλύθατε-Σιὼν-όρει-καὶ-πόλει-θεοῦ-ζῶντος-,-Ιερουσαλὴμ-επουρανίω-,-καὶ-μυριάσιν-αγγέλων-,-πανηγύρει-
23 to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are registered in heaven, to God the Judge of all, to the spirits of just men made perfect,
καὶ-εκκλησία-πρωτοτόκων-απογεγραμμένων-εν-ουρανοῖς-,-καὶ-κριτῆ-θεῶ-πάντων-,-καὶ-πνεύμασι-δικαίων-τετελειωμένων-,-
24 to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than that of Abel.
καὶ-διαθήκης-νέας-μεσίτη-Ιησοῦ-,-καὶ-αίματι-ραντισμοῦ-κρεῖττον-λαλοῦντι-παρὰ-τὸν-Άβελ-.-
25 See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For if they did not escape who refused Him who spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven,
Βλέπετε-μὴ-παραιτήσησθε-τὸν-λαλοῦντα-·-ει-γὰρ-εκεῖνοι-ουκ-εξέφυγον-επὶ-γῆς-παραιτησάμενοι-τὸν-χρηματίζοντα-,-πολὺ-μᾶλλον-ημεῖς-οι-τὸν-απ᾿-ουρανῶν-αποστρεφόμενοι-·-
26 whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, “Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also heaven.”
οῦ-η-φωνὴ-τὴν-γῆν-εσάλευσεν-τότε-,-νῦν-δὲ-επήγγελται-λέγων-,-Έτι-άπαξ-εγὼ-σείσω-ου-μόνον-τὴν-γῆν-αλλὰ-καὶ-τὸν-ουρανόν-.-
27 Now this, “Yet once more,” indicates the removal of those things that are being shaken, as of things that are made, that the things which cannot be shaken may remain.
τὸ-δέ-,-Έτι-άπαξ-δηλοῖ-[-τὴν-]-τῶν-σαλευομένων-μετάθεσιν-ως-πεποιημένων-,-ίνα-μείνη-τὰ-μὴ-σαλευόμενα-.-
28 Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear.
Διὸ-βασιλείαν-ασάλευτον-παραλαμβάνοντες-έχωμεν-χάριν-,-δι᾿-ῆς-λατρεύωμεν-ευαρέστως-τῶ-θεῶ-μετὰ-ευλαβείας-καὶ-δέους-·-
29 For our God is a consuming fire.
καὶ-γὰρ-ο-θεὸς-ημῶν-πῦρ-καταναλίσκον-.-
