Hebrews 12:10–17

10 For they verily for a few days chastened us ||after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, zthat we might be partakers of his holiness. 11 Now no chastening afor the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth bthe peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are cexercised thereby. 12 Wherefore d elift up f gthe hands which hang down, and g hthe feeble knees; 13 And imake ||straight paths for your feet, jlest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but klet it rather be healed. 14 lFollow peace with all men, and mholiness, nwithout which no man shall see the Lord: 15 Looking diligently olest any man ||fail of pthe grace of God; qlest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled; 16 Lest there be any rfornicator, or sprofane person, as Esau, twho for one morsel of meat sold his birthright. 17 For ye know how that afterward, uwhen he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no ||vplace of repentance, though he wsought it carefully with tears.
