Wherefore seeing we also are compassed
about with so great a cloud of witnesses,
let us 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, 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 is set down at the right hand of
the throne of God. For consider him that
endured such contradiction of sinners against
himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your
minds. Ye have not yet resisted unto blood,
striving against sin. And ye have forgotten
the exhortation which speaketh unto you as
unto children, My son, despise not thou the
chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou
art rebuked of him: For whom the Lord
loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every
son whom he receiveth.
Hebrews 12:1-6
