Hebrews 6:11-18

11And we desireG1937 that eachG1538 oneG1538 of you demonstrateG1731 the sameG846 diligenceG4710 1so as to realize the 2fullG4136 assuranceG4136 of 3hopeG1680 untilG891 the endG5056, 12soG2443 thatG2443 you will not be sluggishG3576, but 4imitatorsG3402 of thoseG3588 who throughG1223 5faithG4102 and enduranceG3115 6inheritG2816 the promisesG1860.

13For 7when GodG2316 madeG1861 the promiseG1861 to AbrahamG11, sinceG1893 He couldG2192 swearG3660 anG3660 oathG3660 by noG3762 oneG3762 greaterG3173, He 8sworeG3660 by HimselfG1438, 14sayingG3004, “9indeedG1487G3375 I will greatlyG2127 blessG2127 you and I will greatlyG4129 multiplyG4129 you.” 15And soG3779, 10having patientlyG3114 waitedG3114, he obtainedG2013 the promiseG1860. 1611For peopleG444 swearG3660 anG3660 oathG3660 by 12oneG3173 greaterG3173 than themselves, and with them 13an oathG3727 serving as confirmationG951 is an endG4009 of everyG3956 disputeG485. 1714In the sameG3739 way GodG2316, desiringG1014 evenG4053 moreG4053 to demonstrateG1925 to 15the heirsG2818 of the promiseG1860 1617the fact that His purposeG1012 is unchangeableG276, 18confirmedG3315 it with an oathG3727, 18soG2443 thatG2443 by twoG1417 unchangeableG276 thingsG4229 in whichG3739 19it is impossibleG102 for GodG2316 to lieG5574, we who have takenG2703 refugeG2703 would haveG2192 strongG2478 encouragementG3874 to holdG2902 firmlyG2902 to 20the hopeG1680 setG4295 beforeG4295 us.
