Hebrews 12:12
Print
Therefore, lift up the hands which hang down and the feeble knees,
Wherefore lift up the hands that hang down, and the palsied knees;
So then, strengthen hands that are weak and knees that tremble.
So then, brace up and reinvigorate and set right your slackened and weakened and drooping hands and strengthen your feeble and palsied and tottering knees,
Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;
Therefore, strengthen your tired hands and weakened knees,
So strengthen your drooping hands and weak knees!
So, strengthen your drooping arms, and steady your tottering knees;
Now stand up straight! Stop your knees from shaking
Wherefore lift up the hands that hang down, and the failing knees;
Therefore straighten-up the hands having been slackened and the knees having been made-feeble,
Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees,
You have become weak, so make yourselves strong again.
So be strong as servants of God! If your hands feel weak, lift them up! If your knees are not strong, stand up straight!
Therefore strengthen your weak hands and feeble knees,
Therefore lift your drooping hands and strengthen your weak knees,
Therefore lift your drooping hands and strengthen your weak knees,
·You have become weak, so make yourselves strong again [L Therefore, strengthen your drooping arms/hands and your weak/disabled knees; Is. 35:3].
Wherefore lift up your hands which hang down, and your weak knees,
Strengthen your tired arms and weak knees.
Lift up your tired hands, then, and strengthen your trembling knees!
Therefore strengthen your tired hands and weakened knees,
You have become weak. So make yourselves strong again.
Therefore, strengthen your tired arms and your weak knees,
For our fathers used to correct us according to their own ideas during the brief days of childhood. But God corrects us all our days for our own benefit, to teach us his holiness. Now obviously no “chastening” seems pleasant at the time: it is in fact most unpleasant. Yet when it is all over we can see that is has quietly produced the fruit of real goodness in the characters of those who have accepted it in the right spirit. So take a fresh grip on life and brace your trembling limbs. Don’t wander away from the path but forge steadily onward. On the right path the limping foot recovers strength and does not collapse.
Therefore, lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees,
Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;
Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;
Therefore, strengthen the hands that are weak and the knees that are feeble,
Therefore strengthen your slackened hands and your weakened knees,
So take a new grip with your tired hands, stand firm on your shaky legs,
So don’t sit around on your hands! No more dragging your feet! Clear the path for long-distance runners so no one will trip and fall, so no one will step in a hole and sprain an ankle. Help each other out. And run for it!
Therefore lift up your tired hands, and strengthen your weak knees.
Therefore strengthen your drooping hands and · weakened knees
Strengthen your tired arms and weak knees.
So strengthen your drooping hands and your weak knees.
Therefore, strengthen the hands that are weak and the knees that are feeble,
Therefore, strengthen the hands that are weak and the knees that are feeble,
Therefore, strengthen your drooping hands and your weak knees,
You have become weak, so make yourselves strong again.
Therefore, strengthen your listless hands and your weak knees,
So put your hands to work. Strengthen your legs for the journey.
Therefore, strengthen your feeble arms and weak knees.
Therefore, strengthen your feeble arms and weak knees.
Therefore strengthen the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees,
So lift up your hands that have been weak. Stand up on your weak legs.
So take a new grip with your tired hands and strengthen your weak knees.
Stretch forth therefore again the hands that were let down, and the weak knees,
Therefore lift your drooping hands and strengthen your weak knees,
Therefore lift your drooping hands and strengthen your weak knees,
Therefore lift your drooping hands and strengthen your weak knees,
Therefore lift your drooping hands and strengthen your weak knees
So stop letting your hands go slack, and get some energy into your sagging knees!
Therefore, "Bring chizzuk to the weak hands and the feeble knees; Isa 35:3),
Therefore, lift up your hands which hang down, and your weak knees,
Therefore lift your drooping hands and strengthen your weak knees,
Therefore lift your drooping hands and strengthen your weak knees,
Therefore, strengthen the hands that are weak and the knees that are feeble!
So lift up your hands that are dangling and brace your weakened knees.
Therefore lift up the hands that hang down and the feeble knees, Isaiah 35:3
So lift up your hands that are hanging down. Make your weak knees strong.
For which thing raise ye [up] slow hands, and knees unbound,
Wherefore, the hanging-down hands and the loosened knees set ye up;
