Hebrews 6:13-19
13When GodG2316 made His promiseG1861 to AbrahamG11, sinceG1893 He hadG2192 no oneG3762 greaterG3173 to swearG3660 byG2596, He sworeG3660 byG2596 HimselfG1438, 14sayingG3004, “I will surelyG3375G1487 blessG2127 youG4771 andG2532 multiplyG4129 yourG4771 descendants.”1 15AndG2532 soG3779 Abraham, after waiting patientlyG3114, obtainedG2013 theG3588 promiseG1860.
MenG444 swearG3660 byG2596 someone greaterG3173 than themselves, andG2532 their oathG3727 serves asG1519 a confirmationG951 to endG4009 allG3956 argumentG485. 17So whenG1722G3739 GodG2316 wantedG1014 to makeG1925 theG3588 unchanging natureG276 ofG3588 HisG846 purposeG1012 very clearG4053 to theG3588 heirsG2818 of theG3588 promiseG1860, He guaranteedG3315 it with an oathG3727. 18ThusG2443 byG1223 twoG1417 unchangeableG276 thingsG4229 inG1722 whichG3739 it is impossibleG102 for GodG2316 to lieG5574, we who have fledG2703 to take holdG2902 of theG3588 hopeG1680 set beforeG4295 us may beG2192 stronglyG2478 encouragedG3874.
19We haveG2192 this hope asG5613 an anchorG45 for theG3588 soulG5590, firmG804 andG2532 secureG949. It entersG1525G1519 theG3588 innerG2082 sanctuary behind theG3588 curtainG2665,
