[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, [2] of the teaching of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. [3] This will we do, if God permits. [4] For concerning those who were once enlightened and tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Spirit, [5] and tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, [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. [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; [8] but if it bears thorns and thistles, it is rejected and near being cursed, whose end is to be burned. [9] But, beloved, we are persuaded of better things for you, and things that accompany salvation, even though we speak like this. [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. [11] We desire that each one of you may show the same diligence to the fullness of hope even to the end, [12] that you won’t be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and perseverance inherited the promises. [13] For when God made a promise to Abraham, since he could swear by no one greater, he swore by himself, [14] saying, “Surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply you.”† [15] Thus, having patiently endured, he obtained the promise. [16] For men indeed swear by a greater one, and in every dispute of theirs the oath is final for confirmation. [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, [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. [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, [20] where as a forerunner Jesus entered for us, having become a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.

King James Version
[1] Therefore G1352 leaving G863 (Aor2ActPtc) the principles G746 of the doctrine G3056 of Christ, G5547§ let us go on G5342 (PresPasSubj) unto G1909 perfection; G5047 not G3361 laying G2598 (PresMidPtc) again G3825 the foundation G2310 of repentance G3341 from G575 dead G3498 works, G2041 and G2532 of faith G4102 toward G1909 God, G2316 [2] of the doctrine G1322 of baptisms, G909 and G5037 of laying on G1936 of hands, G5495 and G5037 of resurrection G386 of the dead, G3498 and G2532 of eternal G166 judgment. G2917 [3] And G2532 this G5124 will we do, G4160 (FutActInd) if G1437 God G2316 permit. G2010 (PresActSubj) [4] For G1063 it is impossible G102 for those who were once G530 enlightened, G5461 (AorPasPtc) and G5037 have tasted G1089 (AorMidDepPtc) of the heavenly G2032 gift, G1431 and G2532 were made G1096 (AorPasDepPtc) partakers G3353 of the Holy G40 Ghost, G4151 [5] and G2532 have tasted G1089 (AorMidDepPtc) the good G2570 word G4487 of God, G2316 and G5037 the powers G1411 of the world G165 to come, G3195 (PresActPtc) [6] if G2532 they shall fall away, G3895 (Aor2ActPtc) to renew them G340 (PresActInf) again G3825 unto G1519 repentance; G3341 seeing they crucify G388 to themselves G1438 the Son G5207 of God G2316 afresh, G388 (PresActPtc) and G2532 put him to an open shame. G3856 (PresActPtc) [7] For G1063 the earth G1093 which G3588 drinketh in G4095 (Aor2ActPtc) the rain G5205 that cometh G2064 (PresMidPasDepPtc) oft G4178 upon G1909 it, G846 and G2532 bringeth forth G5088 (PresActPtc) herbs G1008 meet G2111 for them G1565 by G1223§ whom G3739 it is dressed, G1090 (PresPasInd) receiveth G3335 (PresActInd) blessing G2129 from G575 God: G2316 [8] but G1161 that which beareth G1627 (PresActPtc) thorns G173 and G2532 briers G5146 is rejected, G96 and G2532 is nigh G1451 unto cursing; G2671 whose G3739 end G5056 is to G1519 be burned. G2740 [9] But, G1161 beloved, G27 we are persuaded G3982 (PerfPasInd) better things G2909 of G4012 you, G5216 and G2532 things that accompany G2192 (PresPasPtc) salvation, G4991 though G1499 we G2980 thus G3779 speak. G2980 (PresActInd) [10] For G1063 God G2316 is not G3756 unrighteous G94 to forget G1950 (Aor2MidDepInf) your G5216 work G2041 and G2532 labour G2873 of love, G26 which G3739 ye have shewed G1731 (AorMidInd) toward G1519 his G846 name, G3686 in that ye have ministered G1247 (AorActPtc) to the saints, G40 and G2532 do minister. G1247 (PresActPtc) [11] And G1161 we desire G1937 (PresActInd) that every one G1538 of you G5216 do shew G1731 (PresMidInf) the same G846 diligence G4710 to G4314 the full assurance G4136 of hope G1680 unto G891 the end: G5056 [12] that G3363 ye be G1096 (Aor2MidDepSubj) not G3363 slothful, G3576 but G1161 followers G3402 of them who through G1223 faith G4102 and G2532 patience G3115 inherit G2816 (PresActPtc) the promises. G1860 [13] For G1063 when God G2316 made promise G1861 (AorMidDepPtc) to Abraham, G11 because G1893 he could G2192 (ImpfActInd) swear G3660 (AorActInf) by G2596 no G3762 greater, G3187 he sware G3660 (AorActInd) by G2596 himself, G1438 [14] saying, G3004 (PresActPtc) Surely G2229 blessing G2127 (PresActPtc) I will bless G2127 (FutActInd) thee, G4571 and G2532 multiplying G4129 (PresActPtc) I will multiply G4129 (FutActInd) thee. G4571 [15] And G2532 so, G3779 after he had patiently endured, G3114 (AorActPtc) he obtained G2013 (Aor2ActInd) the promise. G1860 [16] For G1063 men G444 verily G3303 swear G3660 (PresActInd) by G2596 the greater: G3187 and G2532 an oath G3727 for G1519 confirmation G951 is to them G846 an end G4009 of all G3956 strife. G485 [17] Wherein G1722 God, G2316 willing G1014 (PresMidPasDepPtc) more abundantly G4054 to shew G1925 (AorActInf) unto the heirs G2818 of promise G1860 the immutability G276 of his G846 counsel, G1012 confirmed G3315 (AorActInd) it by an oath:§ G3727 [18] that G2443 by G1223 two G1417 immutable G276 things, G4229 in G1722 which G3739 it was impossible G102 for God G2316 to lie, G5574 (AorMidDepInf) we might have G2192 (PresActSubj) a strong G2478 consolation, G3874 who G3588 have fled for refuge G2703 (Aor2ActPtc) to lay hold G2902 (AorActInf) upon the hope G1680 set before us: G4295 (PresMidPasDepPtc) [19] which G3739 hope we have G2192 (PresActInd) as G5613 an anchor G45 of the soul, G5590 both G5037 sure G804 and G2532 stedfast, G949 and G2532 which entereth G1525 (PresMidPasDepPtc) into G1519 that within G2082 the veil; G2665 [20] whither G3699 the forerunner G4274 is G1525 for G5228 us G2257 entered, G1525 (Aor2ActInd) even Jesus, G2424 made G1096 (Aor2MidDepPtc) an high priest G749 for G1519 ever G165 after G2596 the order G5010 of Melchisedec.
