Hebrews 12:15
| ← Hebrews 12:14 | Hebrews 12:15 (KJV) | Hebrews 12:16 → |
|---|---|---|
Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:
|
Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;
|
Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.
