For[a] the joy set out for him he endured the cross, disregarding its shame, and has taken his seat at the right hand of the throne of God.[b] 3 Think of him who endured such opposition against himself by sinners, so that you may not grow weary in your souls and give up. 4 You have not yet resisted to the point of bloodshed[c] in your struggle against sin.
