Hebrews 6:1-14

1ThereforeG1352 1leavingG863 2the 3elementaryG746 teachingG3056 about the 4ChristG5547, let us pressG5342 on to 56maturityG5047, not layingG2598 againG3825 a foundationG2310 of repentanceG3341 from 7deadG3498 worksG2041 and of faithG4102 towardG1909 GodG2316, 2of 8instructionG1322 about washingsG909 and 9layingG1936 on of handsG5495, and the 10resurrectionG386 of the deadG3498 and 11eternalG166 judgmentG2917. 3And thisG3778 we will doG4160, 12ifG1437G4007 GodG2316 permitsG2010. 4For in the case of thoseG3588 who have onceG530 been 13enlightenedG5461 and have tastedG1089 of 14the heavenlyG2032 giftG1431 and have beenG1096 madeG1096 15partakersG3353 of the HolyG40 SpiritG4151, 5and 16have tastedG1089 the goodG2570 17wordG4487 of GodG2316 and the powersG1411 of 18the ageG165 to comeG3195, 6and then have fallenG3895 awayG3895, it is 19impossibleG102 to renewG340 them againG3825 to repentanceG3341, 2021since they againG388 crucifyG388 to themselvesG1438 the SonG5207 of GodG2316 and putG3856 Him to openG3856 shameG3856. 7For groundG1093 that drinksG4095 the rainG5205 which oftenG4178 22fallsG2064 on it and bringsG5088 forthG5088 vegetationG1008 usefulG2111 to thoseG1565 23for whoseG3739 sakeG1223 it is alsoG2532 tilledG1090, receivesG3335 a blessingG2129 from GodG2316; 8but if it yieldsG1627 thornsG173 and thistlesG5146, it is worthlessG96 and 24closeG1451 25to being cursedG2671, and 26it endsG5056 up being burnedG2740.

9But, 27belovedG27, we are convincedG3982 of betterG2909 thingsG2909 concerningG4012 you, and things that 28accompanyG2192 salvationG4991, thoughG1487G2532 we are speakingG2980 in thisG3779 wayG3779. 10For 29GodG2316 is not unjustG94 so as to forgetG1950 30your workG2041 and the loveG26 whichG3739 you have shownG1731 towardG1519 His nameG3686, in having 31ministeredG1247 and in still ministeringG1247 to the 32saintsG40. 11And we desireG1937 that eachG1538 oneG1538 of you showG1731 the sameG846 diligenceG4710 33soG4314 as to realize the 34fullG4136 assuranceG4136 of 35hopeG1680 untilG891 the endG5056, 12soG2443 that you will not be sluggishG3576, but 36imitatorsG3402 of thoseG3588 who throughG1223 37faithG4102 and patienceG3115 38inheritG2816 the promisesG1860.

13For 39when GodG2316 madeG1861 the promiseG1861 to AbrahamG11, sinceG1893 He couldG2192 swearG3660 by noG3762 oneG3762 greaterG3173, He 40sworeG3660 by HimselfG1438, 14sayingG3004, “41I will surelyG3375G2127 blessG2127 you and I will surelyG4129 multiplyG4129 you.”
