| Hebrews 6:1 | Therefore leaving the doctrine of the first principles of Christ, let us press on to perfection not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works, of faith toward God, | Therefore leaving elementary instruction about the Christ, let us advance to mature manhood and not be continually re-laying a foundation of repentance from lifeless works and of faith in God, | For this reason let us go on from the first things about Christ to full growth; not building again that on which it is based, that is, the turning of the heart from dead works, and faith in God, |
| Hebrews 6:2 | of the teaching of baptisms, of laying on of hands, of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. | or of teaching about ceremonial washings, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and the last judgement. | The teaching of baptisms, and of the putting on of hands, and of the future life of the dead, and of the judging on the last day. |
| Hebrews 6:3 | This will we do, if God permits. | And advance we will, if God permits us to do so. | Now we will do this, if God lets us. |
| Hebrews 6:4 | For concerning those who were once enlightened and tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Spirit, | For it is impossible, in the case of those who have once for all been enlightened, and have tasted the sweetness of the heavenly gift, and have been made partakers of the Holy Spirit, | As for those who at one time saw the light, tasting the good things from heaven, and having their part in the Holy Spirit, |
| Hebrews 6:5 | and tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the age to come, | and have realized how good the word of God is and how mighty are the powers of the coming Age, and then fell away | With knowledge of the good word of God, and of the powers of the coming time, |
| Hebrews 6:6 | and then fell away, it is impossible to renew them again to repentance; seeing they crucify the Son of God for themselves again, and put him to open shame. | it is impossible, I say, to keep bringing them back to a new repentance, for, to their own undoing, they are repeatedly crucifying the Son of God afresh and exposing Him to open shame. | And then let themselves be turned away, it is not possible for their hearts to be made new a second time; because they themselves put the Son of God on the cross again, openly shaming him. |
| Hebrews 6:7 | For the land which has drunk the rain that comes often on it, and brings forth a crop suitable for them for whose sake it is also tilled, receives blessing from God; | For land which has drunk in the rain that often falls upon it, and brings forth vegetation useful to those for whose sakes, indeed, it is tilled, has a share in God's blessing. | For a land, drinking in the frequent rain and producing good plants for those for whom it is worked, has a blessing from God: |
| Hebrews 6:8 | but if it bears thorns and thistles, it is rejected and near a curse, whose end is to be burned. | But if it only yields a mass of thorns and briers, it is considered worthless, and is in danger of being cursed, and in the end will be destroyed by fire. | But if it sends up thorns and evil plants, it is of no use and is ready to be cursed; its only end is to be burned. |
| Hebrews 6:9 | But, beloved, we are persuaded of better things for you, and things that accompany salvation, though we speak like this, | But we, even while we speak in this tone, have a happier conviction concerning you, my dearly-loved friends a conviction of things which point towards salvation. | But, my loved ones, though we say this, we are certain that you have better things in you, things which go with salvation; |
| Hebrews 6:10 | for God is not unrighteous, so as to forget your work and the labor of love which you showed toward his name, in that you served to the saints, and still do serve them. | For God is not unjust so that He is unmindful of your labour and of the love which you have manifested towards Himself in having rendered services to His people and in still rendering them. | For God is true, and will not put away from him the memory of your work and of your love for his name, in the help which you gave and still give to the saints. |
| Hebrews 6:11 | We desire that each one of you may show the same diligence to the fullness of hope even to the end, | But we long for each of you to continue to manifest the same earnestness, with a view to your enjoying fulness of hope to the very End; | And it is our desire that you may all keep the same high purpose in certain hope to the end: |
| Hebrews 6:12 | that you won't be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherited the promises. | so that you may not become half-hearted, but be imitators of those who through faith and patient endurance are now heirs to the promises. | So that you may not be slow in heart, but may take as your example those to whom God has given their heritage, because of their faith and their long waiting. |
| Hebrews 6:13 | For when God made a promise to Abraham, since he could swear by none greater, he swore by himself, | For when God gave the promise to Abraham, since He had no one greater to swear by, He swore by Himself, | For when God made his oath to Abraham, because there was no greater oath, he made it by himself, |
| Hebrews 6:14 | saying, "Most surely I will bless you, and I will surely multiply you." | saying, "Assuredly I will bless you and bless you, I will increase you and increase you." | Saying, Be certain that I will give you my blessing, and make your numbers very great. |
| Hebrews 6:15 | Thus, having patiently endured, he obtained the promise. | And so, as the result of patient waiting, our forefather obtained what God had promised. | And so, when he had been waiting calmly for a long time, God's word to him was put into effect. |
| Hebrews 6:16 | For men indeed swear by a greater one, and in every dispute of theirs the oath is final for confirmation. | For men swear by what is greater than themselves; and with them an oath in confirmation of a statement always puts an end to a dispute. | For men at all times make their oaths by what is greater; and any argument is ended by the decision of the oath. |
| Hebrews 6:17 | Wherein God, being determined to show more abundantly to the heirs of the promise the immutability of his counsel, interposed with an oath; | In the same way, since it was God's desire to display more convincingly to the heirs of the promise how unchangeable His purpose was, | So that when it was God's desire to make it specially clear to those who by his word were to have the heritage, that his purpose was fixed, he made it more certain with an oath; |
| Hebrews 6:18 | that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we may have a strong encouragement, who have fled for refuge to take hold of the hope set before us, | He added an oath, in order that, through two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible for Him to prove false, we may possess mighty encouragement we who, for safety, have hastened to lay hold of the hope set before us. | So that we, who have gone in flight from danger to the hope which has been put before us, may have a strong comfort in two unchanging things, in which it is not possible for God to be false; |
| Hebrews 6:19 | which we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and entering into that which is within the veil; | That hope we have as an anchor of the soul an anchor that can neither break nor drag. It passes in behind the veil, | And this hope is like a strong band for our souls, fixed and certain, and going in to that which is inside the veil; |
| Hebrews 6:20 | where as a forerunner Jesus entered for us, having become a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek. | where Jesus has entered as a forerunner on our behalf, having become, like Melchizedek, a High Priest for ever. | Where Jesus has gone before us, as a high priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek. |
