Hebrews 12:3 ASV

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;
