Hebrews 12:2 (ASV, KJVS, YLT)

American Standard Version

Hebrews 12

1.  Therefore let us also, seeing we are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,
2.  looking unto Jesus the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising shame, and hath sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
 3.  For consider him that hath endured such gainsaying of sinners against himself, that ye wax not weary, fainting in your souls.
4.  Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin:
5.  and ye have forgotten the exhortation which reasoneth with you as with sons, My son, regard not lightly the chastening of the Lord, Nor faint when thou art reproved of him;
6.  For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, And scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.
7.  It is for chastening that ye endure; God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is there whom his father chasteneth not?
8.  But if ye are without chastening, whereof all have been made partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.
9.  Furthermore, we had the fathers of our flesh to chasten us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?
10.  For they indeed for a few days chastened us as seemed good to them; but he for our profit, that we may be partakers of his holiness.
11.  All chastening seemeth for the present to be not joyous but grievous; yet afterward it yieldeth peaceable fruit unto them that have been exercised thereby, even the fruit of righteousness.
12.  Wherefore lift up the hands that hang down, and the palsied knees;
13.  and make straight paths for your feet, that that which is lame be not turned out of the way, but rather be healed.
14.  Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man shall see the Lord:
15.  looking carefully lest there be any man that falleth short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby the many be defiled;
16.  lest there be any fornication, or profane person, as Esau, who for one mess of meat sold his own birthright.
17.  For ye know that even when he afterward desired to inherit the blessing, he was rejected; for he found no place for a change of mind in his father, though he sought is diligently with tears.
18.  For ye are not come unto a mount that might be touched, and that burned with fire, and unto blackness, and darkness, and tempest,
19.  and the sound of a trumpet, and the voice of words; which voice they that heard entreated that no word more should be spoken unto them;
20.  for they could not endure that which was enjoined, If even a beast touch the mountain, it shall be stoned;
21.  and so fearful was the appearance, that Moses said, I exceedingly fear and quake:
22.  but ye are come unto mount Zion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable hosts of angels,
23.  to the general assembly and church of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,
24.  and to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaketh better than that of Abel.
25.  See that ye refuse not him that speaketh.  For if they escaped not when they refused him that warned them on earth, much more shall not we escape who turn away from him that warneth from heaven:
26.  whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more will I make to tremble not the earth only, but also the heaven.
27.  And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that have been made, that those things which are not shaken may remain.
28.  Wherefore, receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us have grace, whereby we may offer service well-pleasing to God with reverence and awe:
29.  for our God is a consuming fire.

King James w/Strong's #'s

Hebrews 12

1.  Wherefore <5105> seeing we also <2532> are <2192> (PresActPtc) compassed about <4029> (PresMidPasDepPtc) <2254> with so great <5118> a cloud <3509> of witnesses <3144>, let <0659> us <2249> lay aside <0659> (Aor2MidPtc) every <3956> weight <3591>, and <2532> the sin <0266> which doth so easily beset <2139> [us], and let us run <5143> (PresActSubj) with <1223> patience <5281> the race <0073> that is set before <4295> (PresMidPasDepPtc) us <2254>,
2.  Looking <0872> (PresActPtc) unto <1519> Jesus <2424> the author <0747> and <2532> finisher <5051> of [our] faith <4102>; who <3739> for <0473> the joy <5479> that was set before <4295> (PresMidPasDepPtc) him <0846> endured <5278> (AorActInd) the cross <4716>, despising <2706> (AorActPtc) the shame <0152>, and <5037> is set down <2523> (AorActInd) at <1722> the right hand <1188> of the throne <2362> of God <2316>.
 3.  For <1063> consider <0357> (AorMidDepImpr) him that endured <5278> (PerfActPtc) such <5108> contradiction <0485> of <5259> sinners <0268> against <1519> himself <0846>, lest <3363> ye be wearied <2577> (Aor2ActSubj) and faint <1590> (PresPasPtc) in your <5216> minds <5590>.
4.  Ye have <0478> not yet <3768> resisted <0478> (Aor2ActInd) unto <3360> blood <0129>, striving <0464> (PresMidPasDepPtc) against <4314> sin <0266>.
5.  And <2532> ye have forgotten <1585> (PerfPasInd) the exhortation <3874> which <3748> speaketh <1256> (PresMidPasDepInd) unto you <5213> as <5613> unto children <5207>, My <3450> son <5207>, despise <3643> not <3361> thou <3643> (PresActImpr) the chastening <3809> of the Lord <2962>, nor <3366> faint <1590> (PresPasImpr) when thou art rebuked <1651> (PresPasPtc) of <5259> him <0846>:
6.  For <1063> whom <3739> the Lord <2962> loveth <0025> (PresActInd) he chasteneth <3811> (PresActInd), and <1161> scourgeth <3146> (PresActInd) every <3956> son <5207> whom <3739> he receiveth <3858> (PresMidPasDepInd).
7.  If <1487> ye endure <5278> (PresActInd) chastening <3809>, God <2316> dealeth <4374> (PresPasInd) with you <5213> as <5613> with sons <5207>; for <1063> what <5101> son <5207> is he <2076> (PresInd) whom <3739> the father <3962> chasteneth <3811> (PresActInd) not <3756>?
8.  But <1161> if <1487> ye be <2075> (PresInd) without <5565> chastisement <3809>, whereof <3739> all <3956> are <1096> (Perf2ActInd) partakers <3353>, then <0686> are ye <2075> (PresInd) bastards <3541>, and <2532> not <3756> sons <5207>.
9.  Furthermore <1534> <3303> we have had <2192> (ImpfActInd) fathers <3962> of our <2257> flesh <4561> which corrected <3810> [us], and <2532> we gave [them] reverence <1788> (ImpfMidInd): shall we <5293> not <3756> much <4183> rather <3123> be in subjection <5293> (Fut2PasInd) unto the Father <3962> of spirits <4151>, and <2532> live <2198> (FutActInd)?
10.  For <1063> they verily <3303> for <4314> a few <3641> days <2250> chastened <3811> (ImpfActInd) [us] after <2596> their own <0846> pleasure <1380> (PresActPtc); but <1161> he for <1909> [our] profit <4851> (PresActPtc), that <1519> [we] might be partakers <3335> (Aor2ActInf) of his <0846> holiness <0041>.
11.  Now <1161> no <3956> <3756> chastening <3809> for <4314> <3303> the present <3918> (PresPtc) seemeth <1380> (PresActInd) to be <1511> (PresInf) joyous <5479>, but <0235> grievous <3077>: nevertheless <1161> afterward <5305> it yieldeth <0591> (PresActInd) the peaceable <1516> fruit <2590> of righteousness <1343> unto them which are exercised <1128> (PerfPasPtc) thereby <1223> <0846>.
12.  Wherefore <1352> lift up <0461> (AorActImpr) the hands <5495> which hang down <3935> (PerfPasPtc), and <2532> the feeble <3886> (PerfPasPtc) knees <1119>;
13.  And <2532> make <4160> (AorActImpr) straight <3717> paths <5163> for your <5216> feet <4228>, lest that <3363> which is lame <5560> be turned out of the way <1624> (Aor2PasSubj); but <1161> let it <2390> rather <3123> be healed <2390> (AorPasSubj).
14.  Follow <1377> (PresActImpr) peace <1515> with <3326> all <3956> [men], and <2532> holiness <0038>, without <5565> which <3739> no man <3762> shall see <3700> (FutMidDepInd) the Lord <2962>:
15.  Looking diligently <1983> (PresActPtc) lest <3361> any man <5100> fail <5302> (PresActPtc) of <0575> the grace <5485> of God <2316>; lest <3361> any <5100> root <4491> of bitterness <4088> springing <5453> (PresActPtc) up <0507> trouble <1776> (PresActSubj) [you], and <2532> thereby <1223> <5026> many <4183> be defiled <3392> (AorPasSubj);
16.  Lest <3361> there [be] any <5100> fornicator <4205>, or <2228> profane person <0952>, as <5613> Esau <2269>, who <3739> for <0473> one <3391> morsel of meat <1035> sold <0591> (Aor2MidInd) his <0846> birthright <4415>.
17.  For <1063> ye know <2467> (PerfActImpr) how <3754> that afterward <2532> <3347>, when he would <2309> (PresActPtc) have inherited <2816> (AorActInf) the blessing <2129>, he was rejected <0593> (AorPasInd): for <1063> he found <2147> (Aor2ActInd) no <3756> place <5117> of repentance <3341>, though <2539> he sought <1567> it <0846> carefully <1567> (AorActPtc) with <3326> tears <1144>.
18.  For <1063> ye are <4334> not <3756> come <4334> (Perf2ActInd) unto the mount <3735> that might be touched <5584> (PresPasPtc), and <2532> that burned <2545> (PerfPasPtc) with fire <4442>, nor <2532> unto blackness <1105>, and <2532> darkness <4655>, and <2532> tempest <2366>,
19.  And <2532> the sound <2279> of a trumpet <4536>, and <2532> the voice <5456> of words <4487>; which <3739> [voice] they that heard <0191> (AorActPtc) intreated <3868> (AorMidDepInd) that the word <3056> should <4369> not <3361> be spoken <4369> (AorPasInf) to them <0846> any more <3361>:
20.  (For <1063> they could <5342> not <3756> endure <5342> (ImpfActInd) that which was commanded <1291> (PresPasPtc), And if so much as <2579> a beast <2342> touch <2345> (Aor2ActSubj) the mountain <3735>, it shall be stoned <3036> (FutPasInd), or <2228> thrust through <2700> (FutPasInd) with a dart <1002>:
21.  And <2532> so <3779> terrible <5398> was <2258> (ImpfInd) the sight <5324> (PresPasPtc), [that] Moses <3475> said <2036> (Aor2ActInd), I exceedingly fear <1630> <1510> (PresInd) and <2532> quake <1790>:)
22.  But <0235> ye are come <4334> (Perf2ActInd) unto mount <3735> Sion <4622>, and <2532> unto the city <4172> of the living <2198> (PresActPtc) God <2316>, the heavenly <2032> Jerusalem <2419>, and <2532> to an innumerable company <3461> of angels <0032>,
23.  To the general assembly <3831> and <2532> church <1577> of the firstborn <4416>, which are written <0583> (PerfPasPtc) in <1722> heaven <3772>, and <2532> to God <2316> the Judge <2923> of all <3956>, and <2532> to the spirits <4151> of just men <1342> made perfect <5048> (PerfPasPtc),
24.  And <2532> to Jesus <2424> the mediator <3316> of the new <3501> covenant <1242>, and <2532> to the blood <0129> of sprinkling <4473>, that speaketh <2980> (PresActPtc) better things <2909> than <3844> [that of] Abel <0006>.
25.  See <0991> (PresActImpr) that ye refuse <3868> (AorMidDepSubj) not <3361> him that speaketh <2980> (PresActPtc).  For <1063> if <1487> they <1565> escaped <5343> (Aor2ActInd) not <3756> who refused him <3868> (AorMidDepPtc) that spake <5537> (PresActPtc) on <1909> earth <1093>, much <4183> more <3123> [shall not] we <2249> [escape], if we turn away from him <0654> (PresMidPtc) that [speaketh] from <0575> heaven <3772>:
26.  Whose <3739> voice <5456> then <5119> shook <4531> (AorActInd) the earth <1093>: but <1161> now <3568> he hath promised <1861> (PerfMidPasDepInd), saying <3004> (PresActPtc), Yet <2089> once more <0530> I <1473> shake <4579> (PresActInd) not <3756> the earth <1093> only <3440>, but <0235> also <2532> heaven <3772>.
27.  And <1161> this [word], Yet <2089> once more <0530>, signifieth <1213> (PresActInd) the removing <3331> of those things that are shaken <4531> (PresPasPtc), as <5613> of things that are made <4160> (PerfPasPtc), that <2443> those things which cannot <3361> be shaken <4531> (PresPasPtc) may remain <3306> (AorActSubj).
28.  Wherefore <1352> we receiving <3880> (PresActPtc) a kingdom <0932> which cannot be moved <0761>, let us have <2192> (PresActSubj) grace <5485>, whereby <1223> <3739> we may serve <3000> (PresActSubj) God <2316> acceptably <2102> with <3326> reverence <0127> and <2532> godly fear <2124>:
29.  For <2532> <1063> our <2257> God <2316> [is] a consuming <2654> (PresActPtc) fire <4442>.

Young's Literal Translation

Hebrews 12

1.  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,
2.  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;
 3.  for consider again him who endured such gainsaying from the sinners to himself, that ye may not be wearied in your souls-being faint.
4.  Not yet unto blood did ye resist-with the sin striving;
5.  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,
6.  for whom the Lord doth love He doth chasten, and He scourgeth every son whom He receiveth;'
7.  if chastening ye endure, as to sons God beareth Himself to you, for who is a son whom a father doth not chasten?
8.  and if ye are apart from chastening, of which all have become partakers, then bastards are ye, and not sons.
9.  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?
10.  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;
11.  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.
12.  Wherefore, the hanging-down hands and the loosened knees set ye up;
13.  and straight paths make for your feet, that that which is lame may not be turned aside, but rather be healed;
14.  peace pursue with all, and the separation, apart from which no one shall see the Lord,
15.  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;
16.  lest any one be a fornicator, or a profane person, as Esau, who in exchange for one morsel of food did sell his birthright,
17.  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.
18.  For ye came not near to the mount touched and scorched with fire, and to blackness, and darkness, and tempest,
19.  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,
20.  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,'
21.  and, (so terrible was the sight,) Moses said, 'I am fearful exceedingly, and trembling.'
22.  But, ye came to Mount Zion, and to a city of the living God, to the heavenly Jerusalem, and to myriads of messengers,
23.  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,
24.  and to a mediator of a new covenant-Jesus, and to blood of sprinkling, speaking better things than that of Abel!
25.  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,
26.  whose voice the earth shook then, and now hath he promised, saying, 'Yet once-I shake not only the earth, but also the heaven;'
27.  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;
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;
29.  for also our God is a consuming fire.
