14 aPursue peace with all people, and holiness, bwithout which no one will see the Lord:
15 looking carefully lest anyone afall short of the grace of God; lest any broot of bitterness springing up cause trouble, and by this many become defiled;
16 lest there be any afornicator or profane person like Esau, bwho for one morsel of food sold his birthright.
17 For you know that afterward, when he wanted to inherit the blessing, he was arejected, for he found no place for repentance, though he sought it diligently with tears.

18 For you have not come1 to athe mountain that may be touched and that burned with fire, and to blackness and2 darkness and tempest,
19 and the sound of a trumpet and the voice of words, so that those who heard it abegged that the word should not be spoken to them anymore.
