| 6:1 | Wherefore, having left the word of the beginning of the Christ, unto the perfection we may advance, not again a foundation laying of reformation from dead works, and of faith on God, |
| 6:2 | of the teaching of baptisms, of laying on also of hands, of rising again also of the dead, and of judgment age-during, |
| 6:3 | and this we will do, if God may permit, |
| 6:4 | for `it is' impossible for those once enlightened, having tasted also of the heavenly gift, and partakers having became of the Holy Spirit, |
| 6:5 | and did taste the good saying of God, the powers also of the coming age, |
| 6:6 | and having fallen away, again to renew `them' to reformation, having crucified again to themselves the Son of God, and exposed to public shame. |
| 6:7 | For earth, that is drinking in the rain many times coming upon it, and is bringing forth herbs fit for those because of whom also it is dressed, doth partake of blessing from God, |
| 6:8 | and that which is bearing thorns and briers `is' disapproved of, and nigh to cursing, whose end `is' for burning; |
| 6:9 | and we are persuaded, concerning you, beloved, the things that are better, and accompanying salvation, though even thus we speak, |
| 6:10 | for God is not unrighteous to forget your work, and the labour of the love, that ye shewed to His name, having ministered to the saints and ministering; |
| 6:11 | and we desire each one of you the same diligence to shew, unto the full assurance of the hope unto the end, |
| 6:12 | that ye may not become slothful, but followers of those who through faith and patient endurance are inheriting the promises. |
| 6:13 | For to Abraham God, having made promise, seeing He was able to swear by no greater, did swear by Himself, |
| 6:14 | saying, `Blessing indeed I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee;' |
| 6:15 | and so, having patiently endured, he did obtain the promise; |
| 6:16 | for men indeed do swear by the greater, and an end of all controversy to them for confirmation `is' the oath, |
| 6:17 | in which God, more abundantly willing to shew to the heirs of the promise the immutability of his counsel, did interpose by an oath, |
| 6:18 | that through two immutable things, in which `it is' impossible for God to lie, a strong comfort we may have who did flee for refuge to lay hold on the hope set before `us', |
| 6:19 | which we have, as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and entering into that within the vail, |
| 6:20 | whither a forerunner for us did enter -- Jesus, after the order of Melchisedek chief priest having become -- to the age. |
| 6:1 | Wherfore let vs leave ye doctryne pertayninge to the beginninge of a Christen man and let vs go vnto perfeccio and now no more laye the foundacio of repentaunce from deed workes and of fayth towarde God |
| 6:2 | of baptyme of doctryne and of layinge on of hondes and of resurreccion from deeth and of eternall iudgemet. |
| 6:3 | And so will we do yf God permitte. |
| 6:4 | For it is not possible yt they which were once lyghted and have tasted of the hevenly gyft and were become partetakers of the holy goost |
| 6:5 | and have tasted of the good worde of God and of the power of the worlde to come: |
| 6:6 | yf they faule shuld be renued agayne vnto repentaunce: for as moche as they have (as concerninge them selves) crucified the sonne of God a fresshe makynge a mocke of him. |
| 6:7 | For that erth which drinketh in the rayne wich cometh ofte vpon it and bringeth forth erbes mete for them that dresse it receaveth blessynge of god. |
| 6:8 | But that grounde which beareth thornes and bryars is reproved and is nye vnto cursynge: whose ende is to be burned. |
| 6:9 | Neverthelesse deare frendes we trust to se better of you and thynges which accompany saluacion though we thus speake. |
| 6:10 | For god is not vnrighteous that he shuld forget youre worke and laboure that procedeth of love which love shewed in his name which have ministred vnto the saynctes and yet minister |
| 6:11 | Yee and we desyre that every one of you shew the same diligence to the stablysshynge of hope even vnto the ende: |
| 6:12 | that ye faynt not but folowe them which thorow fayth and pacience inheret the promyses. |
| 6:13 | For when god made promes to Abraham because he had no greater thinge to sweare by he sware by him silfe |
| 6:14 | sayinge: Surely I will blesse the and multiply the in dede. |
| 6:15 | And so after that he had taryed a longe tyme he enioyed the promes. |
| 6:16 | Men verely sweare by him that is greater then them selves and an othe to confyrme the thynge ys amonge them an ende of all stryfe. |
| 6:17 | So god willynge very aboundanly to shewe vnto the heyres of promes the stablenes of his counsayle he added an othe |
| 6:18 | that by two immutable thinges (in which it was vnpossible that god shuld lye) we myght have parfect consolacion which have fled for to holde fast the hope that is set before vs |
| 6:19 | which hope we have as an ancre of the soule both sure and stedfast. Which hope also entreth in into tho thynges which are with in the vayle |
| 6:20 | whither ye fore runner is for vs entred in I mea Iesus that is made an hye prest for ever after the order of Melchisedech. |
| 6:1 | Wherfore let vs leaue the doctryne pertaynynge to the begynnynge of a Christen life, and let vs go vnto perfeccion: and now nomore laye ye foundacion of repetaunce from deed workes, and of faith towarde God, |
| 6:2 | of baptyme, of doctryne, of layenge on of hades, of resurreccion of the deed, & of eternall iudgment. |
| 6:3 | And so wil we do yf God permytte. |
| 6:4 | For it is not possible, that they which were once lighted, and haue taisted of the heauely gyfte, and are become partakers of the holy goost, |
| 6:5 | & haue taisted of ye good worde of God, and of the power of the worlde to come, |
| 6:6 | yf they fall awaye (and concernynge them selues crucifye the sonne of God afresshe, and make a mocke off him) that they shulde be renued agayne vnto repentaunce. |
| 6:7 | For the earth, that drynketh in the rayne, which commeth oft vpon it, and bringeth forth herbes mete for them that dresse it, receaueth blessynge of God: |
| 6:8 | But yt grounde which beareth thornes and thistles, is nothinge worth, and nye vnto cursynge: whose ende is to be brent. |
| 6:9 | Neuertheles (ye dearly beloued) we trust to se better of you, and yt saluacio is nyer, though we thus speake. |
| 6:10 | For God is not vnrighteous, that he shulde forget youre worke and laboure of loue, which ye shewed in his name, whan ye mynistred vnto the sayntes, and yet mynister. |
| 6:11 | Yee and we desyre, that euery one of you shewe the same diligence, to the stablyshinge of hope euen vnto the ende, |
| 6:12 | that ye faynte not, but folowe them which thorow faith and paciece inheret the promyses. |
| 6:13 | For whan God made promes to Abraham, because he had none greater to sweare by, he sware by himselfe, |
| 6:14 | and sayde: Surely I wil blesse the and multiplye ye in dede. |
| 6:15 | And so he abode pacietly, and optayned the promes. |
| 6:16 | As for men, they sweare by him that is greater then them selues: and the ooth is the ende of all stryfe to confirme the thinge amoge them. |
| 6:17 | But God, wyllinge very abundauntly to shewe vnto the heyres of promes the stablenes of his councell, added an ooth |
| 6:18 | yt by two immutable thinges (in the which it is vnpossible yt God shulde lye) we mighte haue a stronge consolacion: euen we, which are fled to holde fast the hope that is set before vs, |
| 6:19 | which (hope) we haue as a sure and stedfast anker of oure soule. Which (hope) also entreth in, in to those thinges that are within ye vayle, |
| 6:20 | whither the foreruner is for vs entred in, eue Iesus, which is made an hye prest for euer after ye order of Melchisedech. |
