Hebrews 6
1 Therefore leaving the teaching of the first principles of Christ, let’s press on to perfection—not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works, of faith toward God,
Wherefore let us leave the beginning of the word of the Meshiha, and let us come unto perfection. Or why again another foundation lay you for repentance from dead works, and for faith which is in Aloha,
2 of the teaching of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of consummate (aiōnios g166) judgment.
and for the doctrine of ablution and of imposition of the hand, and for the resurrection from the place of the dead, and for the judgment which is eternal? (aiōnios g166)
3 This will we do, if God permits.
If the Lord permit, we will do this.
4 For concerning those who were once enlightened and tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Spirit,
But they who once unto baptism have descended, and have tasted the gift which is from heaven, and have received the Spirit of Holiness,
and have tasted the good word of Aloha, and the power of the world to come, (aiōn g165)
6 and then fell away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance; seeing they crucify the Son of God for themselves again, and put him to open shame.
(and) who again shall sin, cannot again be renewed unto conversion, who would afresh crucify and put to shame the Son of God.
7 For the land which has drunk the rain that comes often on it and produces a crop suitable for them for whose sake it is also tilled, receives blessing from God;
For the earth that hath drunk the rain which hath come upon it many times, and shall have brought forth the herb that is useful for them on whose account it is cultured, receiveth blessing from Aloha;
8 but if it bears thorns and thistles, it is rejected and near being cursed, whose end is to be burned.
but that which shall produce thorns and briers hath reprobation; nor is it far from the curse, but its end is burning.
9 But, beloved, we are persuaded of better things for you, and things that accompany salvation, even though we speak like this.
But we are persuaded concerning you, my brethren, those things which are good, and that draw nigh unto salvation, though thus we speak.
10 For God is not unrighteous, so as to forget your work and the labor of love which you showed toward his name, in that you served the saints, and still do serve them.
For not unrighteous is Aloha, that he should forget your works and your charity which ye have manifested in his name, who have ministered unto the saints, and do minister.
11 We desire that each one of you may show the same diligence to the fullness of hope even to the end,
But we desire that every one of you manifest the same diligence for the full completion of your hope until the end;
12 that you will not be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and perseverance inherited the promises.
and that it be not cut off from you, but that ye be imitators of them who by fidelity and patience have become heirs of the promise.
13 For when God made a promise to Abraham, since he could swear by no one greater, he swore by himself,
For when to Abraham Aloha gave promise, because there was no one greater than himself to swear by, he sware by his own Self,
14 saying, “Surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply you.”
and said, Blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee.
15 Thus, having patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
And so he waited patiently, and obtained the promise.
16 For men indeed swear by a greater one, and in every dispute of theirs the oath is final for confirmation.
For men swear by one greater than themselves: and every controversy which occurs among them hath a sure conclusion in the oath.
17 In this way God, being determined to show more abundantly to the heirs of the promise the immutability of his counsel, interposed with an oath,
On this account Aloha, willing abundantly to manifest to the heirs of the promise that his engagement is changeless, hath bound it in an oath:
18 that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we may have a strong encouragement, who have fled for refuge to take hold of the hope set before us.
that by two things that are not changed, in which it cannot be that Aloha should lie, great consolation should be ours who have fled unto him: and that we may retain the hope that is promised to us,
19 This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and entering into that which is within the veil,
which we have as an anchor that holdeth our soul, that it may not be moved, and entereth within the veil,
