19 Then, brothers, having confidence for the entering of the Holy of Holies by the blood of Jesus,
20 which He consecrated for us, a new and living way through the veil; that is, His flesh;
21 and having a Great Priest over the house of God,
22 let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, our hearts having been sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our body having been washed in pure water;
23 let us hold fast the confession of the hope without yielding, for He who has promised is faithful.
24 And let us consider one another, to incitement of love and of good works,
25 not forsaking the assembling together of ourselves, as is the custom of some, but exhorting, and by so much more as you see the Day drawing near.
26 For if we are willfully sinning after receiving the full knowledge of the truth, there remains no more sacrifice concerning sins,
27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment and "zealous fire being about to consume the adversaries." Isa. 26:11
28 If anyone did not regard the Law of Moses, that one dies without pities on " the word of two or three witnesses." Deut. 17:6
29 How much worse punishment do you think will be thought worthy to receive, the one trampling the Son of God, and having counted common the blood of the covenant in which he was sanctified, and having insulted the Spirit of grace?
30 For we know Him who has said, "Vengeance belongs to Me; I will repay," says the Lord. And again, "The Lord will judge His people." Deut. 32:35, 36
31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
32 But call to mind the former days in which being enlightened you endured much conflict of sufferings;
33 indeed being exposed both to reproaches and to afflictions; and having become partners of those so living.
34 For also you suffered together in my bonds; and you accepted the seizure of your possessions with joy, knowing yourselves to have a better and abiding possession in Heaven.
35 Then do not throw away your confidence, which has great reward.
36 For you have need of patience, that having done the will of God you may obtain the promise.
37 For, yet a very little and the One coming will come, "and will not delay." Hab. 2:3
38 "But the just shall live by faith;" "and if he draws back," "My soul is not pleased in him." Hab. 2:4
39 But we are not of those withdrawing to destruction, but of faith, to the preservation of the soul.
