Hebrews 12:14-17

21st Century King James Version

¹⁴ Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord,

¹⁵ looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness spring up to trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;

¹⁶ lest there be any fornicator or profane person as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.

¹⁷ For ye know how afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected; for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it diligently with tears.
