And from Y'shuw`a HaMoshiach, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
For Moshiach also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to Elohim, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Ruach:
Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which Ruach HaKodesh hath made you overseers, to feed the Congregation of Elohim, which he hath purchased with his own blood.
And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to Elohim by thy blood out of every kindred, and language, and people, and nation;
Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;
So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted unto you, not the gospel of Elohim only, but also our own souls, because ye were dear unto us.
