6:1  Therefore, having left the message of the beginning concerning Christ, let us be carried-along to maturity— not again laying-down a foundation of repentance from dead works and faith toward God,
6:2  of instruction about cleansings and laying-on of hands, and about the resurrection of the dead and eternal judgment.
6:3  And this we will do if-indeed God permits.
6:4  For it is impossible to renew again to repentance the ones having once been enlightened and having tasted the heavenly gift, and having been made partakers of the Holy Spirit,
6:5  and having tasted the good word of God and the powers of the coming age,
6:6  and having fallen-away— crucifying-again for themselves the Son of God, and publicly-disgracing Him.
6:7  For land having drunk the rain coming often upon it, and producing a plant useful to those for whose sake it is also farmed, receives a blessing from God.
6:8  But land bringing-forth thorns and thistles is disapproved and near a curse, whose end is for burning.
6:9  But concerning you, beloved, we are convinced-of better things, and things having salvation— even though we are speaking in this manner.
6:10  For God is not unjust so as to forget your work and the love which you demonstrated for His name, having served the saints and [still] serving.
6:11  But we desire that each of you be demonstrating the same diligence toward the full-assurance of hope until the end,
6:12  in order that you may not be sluggish, but imitators of the ones inheriting the promises through faith and patience.
6:13  For God, having promised to Abraham, swore by Himself— since He had by no one greater to swear—
6:14  saying [in Gen 22:17]: “Surely while blessing I will bless you, and while multiplying I will multiply you”.
6:15  And so, having waited-patiently, he obtained the promise.
6:16  For people swear by the greater one. And for them the oath for confirmation is the end of every dispute,
6:17  by which custom God, intending even more to show the unchangeableness of His intention to the heirs of the promise, guaranteed with an oath,
6:18  in order that by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we— the ones having fled to take-hold-of the hope being set-before us— may have strong encouragement,
6:19  which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both secure and firm and entering into the inner side of the curtain,
6:20  where a forerunner for us went in— Jesus— having become High Priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.
