rsv Hebrews:10:32-39
rsv@Hebrews:10:32 @ But recall the former days when, after you were enlightened, you endured a hard struggle with sufferings,
rsv@Hebrews:10:33 @ sometimes being publicly exposed to abuse and affliction, and sometimes being partners with those so treated.
rsv@Hebrews:10:34 @ For you had compassion on the prisoners, and you joyfully accepted the plundering of your property, since you knew that you yourselves had a better possession and an abiding one.
rsv@Hebrews:10:35 @ Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward.
rsv@Hebrews:10:36 @ For you have need of endurance, so that you may do the will of God and receive what is promised.
rsv@Hebrews:10:37 @ "For yet a little while, and the coming one shall come and shall not tarry;
rsv@Hebrews:10:38 @ but my righteous one shall live by faith, and if he shrinks back, my soul has no pleasure in him."
rsv@Hebrews:10:39 @ But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and keep their souls.
