Hebrews 4:14-16
Wycliffe Bible
14 Therefore we that have a great bishop, that pierced heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, hold we the acknowledging of our hope [hold we the confession, or acknowledging, of our faith].
15 For we have not a bishop, that may not have compassion on our infirmities, but was tempted by all things by likeness, without sin.
16 Therefore go we with trust to the throne of his grace, that we get mercy, and find grace in opportune help [in covenable help].

Hebrews 4:14-16
1599 Geneva Bible
14 [a]Seeing then that we have a great high Priest, which is entered into heaven, even Jesus the Son of God, let us [b]hold fast our profession.
15 [c]For we have not an high Priest, which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but was in all things tempted in like sort, yet without sin.
16 Let us therefore go boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

- Hebrews 4:14 Now he entereth into the comparison of Christ’s Priesthood with Aaron’s, and declareth even in the very beginning the marvelous excellency of this Priesthood, calling him the Son of God and placing him in the seat of God in heaven, plainly and evidently setting him against Aaron’s Priests, and the transitory tabernacle: which comparisons he setteth forth afterward more at large.
- Hebrews 4:14 And let it not go out of your hands.
- Hebrews 4:15 Lest he might seem by this great glory of our high Priest, to stay and stop us from going unto him, he addeth straightways after, that he is notwithstanding our brother indeed, (as he proved it also before) and that he accounteth all our miseries, as his own, to call us boldly to him.
Hebrews 4:14-16
Authorized (King James) Version
14 Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession. 15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
