1. Therefore G1352 leaving G863 the G3588 principles G746 of the G3588 doctrine G3056 of Christ G5547 , let us go on G5342 unto G1909 perfection G5047 ; not G3361 laying G2598 again G3825 the foundation G2310 of repentance G3341 from G575 dead G3498 works G2041 , and G2532 of faith G4102 toward G1909 God G2316 ,
|
1. Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,
|
|
2. Of the doctrine G1322 of baptisms G909 , and G5037 of laying on G1936 of hands G5495 , and G5037 of resurrection G386 of the dead G3498 , and G2532 of eternal G166 judgment G2917 .
|
2. Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment.
|
|
3. And G2532 this G5124 will we do G4160 , if G1437 G4007 God G2316 permit G2010 .
|
3. And this will we do, if God permit.
|
|
4. For G1063 it is impossible G102 for those who were once enlightened G5461 G530 , and G5037 have tasted G1089 of the G3588 heavenly G2032 gift G1431 , and G2532 were made G1096 partakers G3353 of the Holy G40 Ghost G4151 ,
|
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,
|
|
5. And G2532 have tasted G1089 the good G2570 word G4487 of God G2316 , and G5037 the powers G1411 of the world G165 to come G3195 ,
|
5. And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come,
|
|
6. If they G2532 shall fall away G3895 , to renew G340 them again G3825 unto G1519 repentance G3341 ; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh G388 G1438 G3588 G5207 G2316 , and G2532 put him to an open shame G3856 .
|
6. If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.
|
|
7. For G1063 the earth G1093 which drinketh in G4095 the G3588 rain G5205 that cometh G2064 oft G4178 upon G1909 it G846 , and G2532 bringeth forth G5088 herbs G1008 meet G2111 for them G1565 by G1223 whom G3739 it is G2532 dressed G1090 , receiveth G3335 blessing G2129 from G575 God G2316 :
|
7. For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God:
|
|
8. But G1161 that which beareth G1627 thorns G173 and G2532 briars G5146 is rejected G96 , and G2532 is nigh unto G1451 cursing G2671 ; whose G3739 end G5056 is to be burned G1519 G2740 .
|
8. But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned.
|
|
9. But G1161 , beloved G27 , we are persuaded G3982 better things G2909 of G4012 you G5216 , and G2532 things that accompany G2192 salvation G4991 , though G1499 we thus G3779 speak G2980 .
|
9. But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak.
|
|
10. For G1063 God G2316 is not G3756 unrighteous G94 to forget G1950 your G5216 work G2041 and G2532 labor G2873 of love G26 , which G3739 ye have showed G1731 toward G1519 his G846 name G3686 , in that ye have ministered G1247 to the G3588 saints G40 , and G2532 do minister G1247 .
|
10. For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
|
|
11. And G1161 we desire G1937 that every one G1538 of you G5216 do show G1731 the G3588 same G846 diligence G4710 to G4314 the G3588 full assurance G4136 of hope G1680 unto G891 the end G5056 :
|
11. And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end:
|
|
12. That G2443 ye be G1096 not G3361 slothful G3576 , but G1161 followers G3402 of them who through G1223 faith G4102 and G2532 patience G3115 inherit G2816 the G3588 promises G1860 .
|
12. That ye be not slothful, but followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
|
|
13. For G1063 when God G2316 made promise G1861 to Abraham G11 , because G1893 he could G2192 swear G3660 by G2596 no G3762 greater G3187 , he swore G3660 by G2596 himself G1438 ,
|
13. For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear by no greater, he sware by himself,
|
|
14. Saying G3004 , Surely G2229 G3375 blessing G2127 I will bless G2127 thee G4571 , and G2532 multiplying G4129 I will multiply G4129 thee G4571 .
|
14. Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee.
|
|
15. And G2532 so G3779 , after he had patiently endured G3114 , he obtained G2013 the G3588 promise G1860 .
|
15. And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
|
|
16. For G1063 men G444 verily G3303 swear G3660 by G2596 the G3588 greater G3187 : and G2532 an oath G3727 for G1519 confirmation G951 is to them G846 an end G4009 of all G3956 strife G485 .
|
16. For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all strife.
|
|
17. Wherein G1722 G3739 God G2316 , willing G1014 more abundantly G4054 to show G1925 unto the G3588 heirs G2818 of promise G1860 the G3588 immutability G276 of his G848 counsel G1012 , confirmed G3315 it by an oath G3727 :
|
17. Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath:
|
|
18. That G2443 by G1223 two G1417 immutable G276 things G4229 , in G1722 which G3739 it was impossible G102 for God G2316 to lie G5574 , we might have G2192 a strong G2478 consolation G3874 , who have fled for refuge G2703 to lay hold upon G2902 the hope G1680 set before G4295 us:
|
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 upon the hope set before us:
|
|
19. Which G3739 hope we have G2192 as G5613 an anchor G45 of the G3588 soul G5590 , both G5037 sure G804 and G2532 steadfast G949 , and G2532 which entereth G1525 into G1519 that within G2082 the G3588 veil G2665 ;
|
19. Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil;
|
|
20. Whither G3699 the forerunner G4274 is for G5228 us G2257 entered G1525 , even Jesus G2424 , made G1096 a high priest G749 forever G1519 G165 after G2596 the G3588 order G5010 of Melchizedek G3198 .
|
20. Whither the forerunner is for us entered, even Jesus, made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
