Hebrews 6
1 Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on to perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,
Therefore, leauing the doctrine of the beginning of Christ, let vs be led forward vnto perfection, not laying againe ye foundation of repetance from dead workes, and of faith toward God,
2 Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. (aiōnios g166)
Of the doctrine of baptismes, and laying on of hands, and of the resurrection from the dead, and of eternall iudgement. (aiōnios g166)
3 And this will we do, if God permit.
And this will we doe if God permit.
4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost,
For it is impossible that they which were once lightened, and haue tasted of the heauenly gift, and were made partakers of the holy Ghost,
And haue tasted of the good word of God, and of the powers of the world to come, (aiōn g165)
6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again to repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.
If they fal away, should be renued againe by repentance: seeing they crucifie againe to themselues the Sonne of God, and make a mocke of him.
7 For the earth which drinks in the rain that comes oft on it, and brings forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receives blessing from God:
For the earth which drinketh in the raine that commeth oft vpon it, and bringeth foorth herbes meete for them by whome it is dressed, receiueth blessing of God.
8 But that which bears thorns and briers is rejected, and is near to cursing; whose end is to be burned.
But that which beareth thornes and briars, is reproued, and is neere vnto cursing, whose end is to be burned.
9 But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak.
But beloued, we haue perswaded our selues better things of you, and such as accompany saluation, though we thus speake.
10 For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labor of love, which you have showed toward his name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
For God is not vnrighteous, that hee should forget your worke, and labour of loue, which ye shewed toward his Name, in that ye haue ministred vnto the Saints, and yet minister.
11 And we desire that every one of you do show the same diligence to the full assurance of hope to the end:
And we desire that euery one of you shew the same diligence, to the full assurance of hope vnto the ende,
12 That you be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
That ye be not slouthfull, but followers of them, which through faith and patience, inherite the promises.
13 For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he swore by himself,
For when God made the promise to Abraham, because he had no greater to sweare by, he sware by himselfe,
14 Saying, Surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply you.
Saying, Surely I wil aboundantly blesse thee and multiplie thee marueilously.
15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
And so after that he had taried patiently, he enioyed the promise.
16 For men truly swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all strife.
For men verely sweare by him that is greater then themselues, and an othe for confirmation is among them an ende of all strife.
17 Wherein God, willing more abundantly to show to the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath:
So God, willing more aboundantly to shew vnto the heires of promise the stablenes of his counsell, bound himselfe by an othe,
18 That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold on the hope set before us:
That by two immutable things, wherein it is vnpossible that God should lye, we might haue strong consolation, which haue our refuge to lay holde vpon that hope that is set before vs,
19 Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which enters into that within the veil;
Which hope we haue, as an ancre of the soule, both sure and stedfast, and it entreth into that which is within the vaile,
