Hebrews 10:19-39

19Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,1 20By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;2 21And having an high priest over the house of God; 22Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. 23Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) 24And let us consider one another to stir up to love and to good works: 25Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves, as the manner of some is ; but exhorting one another : and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching. 26For if we sin wilfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, 27But a certain fearful expectation of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. 28He that despised Moses’ law died without mercy under two or three witnesses: 29Of how much more severe punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, by which he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite to the Spirit of grace? 30For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth to me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people. 31It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. 32But call to remembrance the former days, in which, after ye were illuminated, ye endured a great fight of afflictions; 33Partly, while ye were made a gazingstock both by reproaches and afflictions; and partly, while ye became companions of them that were so used. 34For ye had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the plundering of your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven a better and an enduring substance.3 35Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward. 36For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye may receive the promise. 37For yet a little while, and he that is coming will come, and will not tarry. 38Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man shall draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. 39But we are not of them who draw back to perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.
