* Having therefore , brethren , boldness for entering into the [holy of ] holies by the blood of Jesus , * the new and living way which he has dedicated for us through the veil , that is , his flesh , * and [having ] a great priest over the house of God , * let us approach with a true heart , in full assurance of faith , sprinkled as to our hearts from a wicked conscience , and washed as to our body with pure water . * Let us hold fast the confession of the hope unwavering , (for he [is ] faithful who has promised ;) * and let us consider one another for provoking to love and good works ; * not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together , as the custom [is ] with some ; but encouraging [one another ], and by so much the more as ye see the day drawing near . * For where we sin wilfully after receiving the knowledge of the truth , there no longer remains any sacrifice for sins , * but a certain fearful expectation of judgment , and heat of fire about to devour the adversaries . * Any one that has disregarded Moses ' law dies without mercy on [the testimony of ] two or three witnesses : * of how much worse punishment , think ye , shall he be judged worthy who has trodden under foot the Son of God , and esteemed the blood of the covenant , whereby he has been sanctified , common , and has insulted the Spirit of grace ? * For we know him that said , To me [belongs ] vengeance ; I will recompense , saith the Lord : and again , The Lord shall judge his people . * [It is ] a fearful thing falling into [the ] hands of [the ] living God . * But call to mind the earlier days in which , having been enlightened , ye endured much conflict of sufferings ; * on the one hand , when ye were made a spectacle both in reproaches and afflictions ; and on the other , when ye became partakers with those who were passing through them . * For ye both sympathised with prisoners and accepted with joy the plunder of your goods , knowing that ye have for yourselves a better substance , and an abiding one . * Cast not away therefore your confidence , which has great recompense . * For ye have need of endurance in order that , having done the will of God , ye may receive the promise . * For yet a very little while he that comes will come , and will not delay . * But the just shall live by faith ; and , if he draw back , my soul does not take pleasure in him . * But we are not drawers back to perdition , but of faith to saving [the ] soul .
