Hebrews 6

New Century Version NCV

1 So let us go on to grown-up teaching. Let us not go back over the beginning lessons we learned about Christ. We should not again start teaching about faith in God and about turning away from those acts that lead to death.

2 We should not return to the teaching about baptisms, about laying on of hands, about the raising of the dead and eternal judgment.

3 And we will go on to grown-up teaching if God allows.

4 Some people cannot be brought back again to a changed life. They were once in God's light, and enjoyed heaven's gift, and shared in the Holy Spirit.

5 They found out how good God's word is, and they received the powers of his new world.

6 But they fell away from Christ. It is impossible to bring them back to a changed life again, because they are nailing the Son of God to a cross again and are shaming him in front of others.

7 Some people are like land that gets plenty of rain. The land produces a good crop for those who work it, and it receives God's blessings.

8 Other people are like land that grows thorns and weeds and is worthless. It is in danger of being cursed by God and will be destroyed by fire.

9 Dear friends, we are saying this to you, but we really expect better things from you that will lead to your salvation.

10 God is fair; he will not forget the work you did and the love you showed for him by helping his people. And he will remember that you are still helping them.

11 We want each of you to go on with the same hard work all your lives so you will surely get what you hope for.

12 We do not want you to become lazy. Be like those who through faith and patience will receive what God has promised.

13 God made a promise to Abraham. And as there is no one greater than God, he used himself when he swore to Abraham,

14 saying, "I will surely bless you and give you many descendants."

15 Abraham waited patiently for this to happen, and he received what God promised.

16 People always use the name of someone greater than themselves when they swear. The oath proves that what they say is true, and this ends all arguing.

17 God wanted to prove that his promise was true to those who would get what he promised. And he wanted them to understand clearly that his purposes never change, so he made an oath.

18 These two things cannot change: God cannot lie when he makes a promise, and he cannot lie when he makes an oath. These things encourage us who came to God for safety. They give us strength to hold on to the hope we have been given.

19 We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, sure and strong. It enters behind the curtain in the Most Holy Place in heaven,

20 where Jesus has gone ahead of us and for us. He has become the high priest forever, a priest like Melchizedek.

The Latin Vulgate VUL

1 quapropter intermittentes inchoationis Christi sermonem ad perfectionem feramur non rursum iacientes fundamentum paenitentiae ab operibus mortuis et fidei ad Deum

2 baptismatum doctrinae inpositionis quoque manuum ac resurrectionis mortuorum et iudicii aeterni

3 et hoc faciemus siquidem permiserit Deus

4 inpossibile est enim eos qui semel sunt inluminati gustaverunt etiam donum caeleste et participes sunt facti Spiritus Sancti

5 gustaverunt nihilominus bonum Dei verbum virtutesque saeculi venturi

6 et prolapsi sunt renovari rursus ad paenitentiam rursum crucifigentes sibimet ipsis Filium Dei et ostentui habentes

7 terra enim saepe venientem super se bibens imbrem et generans herbam oportunam illis a quibus colitur accipit benedictionem a Deo

8 proferens autem spinas ac tribulos reproba est et maledicto proxima cuius consummatio in conbustionem

9 confidimus autem de vobis dilectissimi meliora et viciniora saluti tametsi ita loquimur

10 non enim iniustus Deus ut obliviscatur operis vestri et dilectionis quam ostendistis in nomine ipsius qui ministrastis sanctis et ministratis

11 cupimus autem unumquemque vestrum eandem ostentare sollicitudinem ad expletionem spei usque in finem

12 ut non segnes efficiamini verum imitatores eorum qui fide et patientia hereditabunt promissiones

13 Abrahae namque promittens Deus quoniam neminem habuit per quem iuraret maiorem iuravit per semet ipsum

14 dicens nisi benedicens benedicam te et multiplicans multiplicabo te

15 et sic longanimiter ferens adeptus est repromissionem

16 homines enim per maiorem sui iurant et omnis controversiae eorum finis ad confirmationem est iuramentum

17 in quo abundantius volens Deus ostendere pollicitationis heredibus inmobilitatem consilii sui interposuit iusiurandum

18 ut per duas res inmobiles quibus inpossibile est mentiri Deum fortissimum solacium habeamus qui confugimus ad tenendam propositam spem

19 quam sicut anchoram habemus animae tutam ac firmam et incedentem usque in interiora velaminis

20 ubi praecursor pro nobis introiit Iesus secundum ordinem Melchisedech pontifex factus in aeternum
