HEBREWS XI. 27—40; XII. 1—13. ||By faith|| he forsook Egypt— Not put in fear of the wrath of the king; For |as seeing him who cannot´ be seen| ||he persevered||. ||By faith|| he hath kept the passover and the besmearing of the blood, Lest |he that was destroying the first-born| ||By faith|| they passed through the Red Sea, Which the Egyptians |seizing an attempt´ to do| were swallowed up. ||By faith|| |the walls of Jerieho| fell, ||By faith|| |Rahab the harlot| perished not with them who refused to yield, And what more´ can I say? For |time| will fail me while I go on telling — Concerning Gideon､ Barak､ Sampson､ Jephthah, David also, and Samuel, and the pro- phets, — Who ||through faith||— Prevailed in contest over kingdoms. Wrought righteousness, Attained unto promises. Shut the mouths of lions, Quenched the power of fire, Escaped the mouths of the sword, Were made powerful from weakness､ Became mighty in battle､ Overturned |camps of aliens|; Women received |by resurrection| ||their dead|| ; But |others| were put to the rack､ Not accepting redemption. That |unto a better´ resurrection| ||they might attain||: |Others| again, |of mockings and scourg- ings| received trial, ments: They were stoned, were pierced through, Went about in sheep-skins, in goat-hides, — Being in want､ suffering tribulation, en- during ill-treatment: Of whom the world |was not worthy| — and in caves, — and in the caverns of the earth. And ||these all||  Yet bare not away |the promise|: ||God|| |for us| something better´ provid- ing,— That |not apart from us| should they be made ||perfect||.
 * should be touching them||.
 * as over dry land|, —
 * Having been surrounded for seven days|.
 * She having welcomed the spies with peace|.
 * Nay! further| of bonds and imprison-
 * were sawn asunder],
 * By murder|､ with a sword､ ||died||,
 * Upon deserts| wandering､ and mountains,

Therefore､ indeed､   that is lying before us|, Looking away unto our faith's Princely-leader and perfecter､ ||Jesus||,— Who  Endured a cross, |shame| despising! And on the right hand of the throne of God| ||hath taken his seat||. For take ye into consideration — Him who hath endured |such´ contradiction| by sinners against themselves, Lest ye be wearied, |in your souls| becoming exhausted. ||Not yet´ unto blood|| have ye resisted, |against sin| waging a contest; And ye have quite forgotten the exhortation which, indeed, |with you´ as with sons| My son! be not slighting the discipline of the Lord, Neither he fainting､ when by him´ thou art reproved; For |whom the Lord loveth| he doth discipline. And scourgeth every´ son whom he doth  persevere! For who is |a son| whom |a father| doth not discipline?  ||Furthermore, indeed|| |the fathers of our flesh| we used to have､ |as administrators of discipline|. And we used to pay deference: Shall we not ||much rather|| submit ourselves to |the Father of our spirits| and ||live||? For |they| indeed,  were administering discipline; But |he| unto that which is profitable､ |with a view to our partaking of his holiness|: But ||no discipline|| |for the present､ indeed| seemeth to be of joy´, but of sorrow´:  It yieldeth |peaceful fruit| ||of righteous- ness||. Wherefore the slackened hands and paralysed knees restore ye, And |straight tracks| be making for your feet — That the lame member may not be dislocated, but |be healed rather´|.
 * With endurance| let us be running |the race
 * doth reason||: —
 * welcome home|.
 * As towards sons|| |God| beareth himself
 * towards you|;
 * Then| are ye |bastards| and ||not sons||.
 * Afterwards|| however —
