Hebrews 12:11-15

RHE

NIV

11 Now all chastisement for the present indeed seemeth not to bring with it joy, but sorrow: but afterwards it will yield to them that are exercised by it the most peaceable fruit of justice.
11 No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.
12 Wherefore, lift up the hands which hang down and the feeble knees:
12 Therefore, strengthen your feeble arms and weak knees.
13 And make straight steps with your feet: that no one, halting, may go out of the way; but rather be healed.
13 “Make level paths for your feet,” so that the lame may not be disabled, but rather healed.
14 Follow peace with all men and holiness: without which no man shall see God.
14 Make every effort to live in peace with everyone and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord.
15 Looking diligently, lest any man be wanting to the grace of God: lest any root of bitterness springing up do hinder and by it many be defiled:
15 See to it that no one falls short of the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many.
