Hebrews 12:1-7 Voice

Hebrews 12:1-7 Voice [1] So since we stand surrounded by all those who have gone before, an enormous cloud of witnesses, let us drop every extra weight, every sin that clings to us and slackens our pace, and let us run with endurance the long race set before us. [2] Now stay focused on Jesus, who designed and perfected our faith. He endured the cross and ignored the shame of that death because He focused on the joy that was set before Him; and now He is seated beside God on the throne, a place of honor. [3] Consider the life of the One who endured such personal attacks and hostility from sinners so that you will not grow weary or lose heart. [4] Among you, in your striving against sin, none has resisted the pressure to the point of death, as He did. [5] Indeed, you seem to have forgotten the proverb directed to you as children: My child, do not ignore the instruction that comes from the Lord, or lose heart when He steps in to correct you; [6] For the Lord disciplines those He loves, and He corrects each one He takes as His own. [7] Endure hardship as God's discipline and rejoice that He is treating you as His children, for what child doesn't experience discipline from a parent?
