< Hebrews 6 >

1 therefore to release: leave the/this/who the/this/who beginning the/this/who Christ word upon/to/against the/this/who perfection to bear/lead not again foundation to lay/throw down repentance away from dead work and faith upon/to/against God
Therefore let us leave the elementary teachings about Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith in God,
2 baptism (teaching *NK(o)*) laying on and/both hand resurrection and/both dead and judgment eternal (aiōnios g166)
instruction about baptisms, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. (aiōnios g166)
3 and this/he/she/it (to do/make: do *NK(o)*) if indeed to permit the/this/who God
And this we will do, if God permits.
4 unable for the/this/who once to illuminate to taste and/both the/this/who free gift the/this/who heavenly and partaker to be spirit/breath: spirit holy
It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, who have shared in the Holy Spirit,
5 and good to taste God declaration power and/both to ensue an age: age (aiōn g165)
who have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the coming age— (aiōn g165)
6 and to defect again to restore toward repentance to recrucify themself the/this/who son the/this/who God and to disgrace
and then have fallen away—to be restored to repentance, because they themselves are crucifying the Son of God all over again and subjecting Him to open shame.
7 earth: country for the/this/who to drink the/this/who upon/to/against it/s/he to come/go often rain and to give birth to crop suitable that through/because of which and to farm to partake praise away from the/this/who God
For land that drinks in the rain often falling on it and that produces a crop useful to those for whom it is tended receives the blessing of God.
8 to bring/carry out then a thorn and thistle failing and curse near which the/this/who goal/tax toward burning
But land that produces thorns and thistles is worthless, and its curse is imminent. In the end it will be burned.
9 to persuade then about you beloved the/this/who greater and to have/be salvation if: even though and thus(-ly) to speak
Even though we speak like this, beloved, we are convinced of better things in your case—things that accompany salvation.
10 no for unjust the/this/who God to forget the/this/who work you and (the/this/who labor *K*) the/this/who love which to show toward the/this/who name it/s/he to serve the/this/who holy: saint and to serve
For God is not unjust. He will not forget your work and the love you have shown for His name as you have ministered to the saints and continue to do so.
11 to long for then each you the/this/who it/s/he to show diligence to/with the/this/who assurance the/this/who hope until goal/tax
We want each of you to show this same diligence to the very end, in order to make your hope sure.
12 in order that/to not dull to be imitator then the/this/who through/because of faith and patience to inherit the/this/who promise
Then you will not be sluggish, but will imitate those who through faith and patience inherit what has been promised.
13 the/this/who for Abraham to profess the/this/who God since according to none to have/be great to swear to swear according to themself
When God made His promise to Abraham, since He had no one greater to swear by, He swore by Himself,
14 to say (if: surely *N(k)O*) certainly to praise/bless to praise/bless you and to multiply to multiply you
saying, “I will surely bless you and multiply your descendants.”
15 and thus(-ly) to have patience to obtain the/this/who promise
And so Abraham, after waiting patiently, obtained the promise.
16 a human (on the other hand *k*) for according to the/this/who great to swear and all it/s/he dispute end toward confirmation the/this/who oath
Men swear by someone greater than themselves, and their oath serves as a confirmation to end all argument.
17 in/on/among which more excessive to plan the/this/who God to show/prove the/this/who heir the/this/who promise the/this/who unchangeable the/this/who plan it/s/he to guarantee oath
So when God wanted to make the unchanging nature of His purpose very clear to the heirs of the promise, He guaranteed it with an oath.
18 in order that/to through/because of two thing unchangeable in/on/among which unable to lie (the/this/who *n*) God strong encouragement to have/be the/this/who to flee to grasp/seize the/this/who to set before hope
Thus by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope set before us may be strongly encouraged.
19 which as/when anchor to have/be the/this/who soul secure and/both and firm and to enter toward the/this/who inner the/this/who curtain
We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain,
20 where(-ever) forerunner above/for me to enter Jesus according to the/this/who order Melchizedek high-priest to be toward the/this/who an age: eternity (aiōn g165)
where Jesus our forerunner has entered on our behalf. He has become a high priest forever in the order of Melchizedek. (aiōn g165)
