Hebrews 10:19–31

The Full Assurance of Faith

^19pTherefore, brothers,³ since we have confidence to enter ^qthe holy places by the blood of Jesus, ²⁰by ^rthe new and living way that he opened for us through ^sthe curtain, that is, through his flesh, ²¹and since we have ^ta great priest over the house of God, ²²let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts ^usprinkled clean ^vfrom an evil conscience and our bodies ^wwashed with pure water. ^23xLet us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for ^yhe who promised is faithful. ²⁴And ^zlet us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, ^25anot neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and ^ball the more as you see ^cthe Day drawing near.

²⁶For ^dif we go on sinning deliberately ^eafter receiving the knowledge of the truth, ^fthere no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, ^27gbut a fearful expectation of judgment, and ^ha fury of fire that will consume the adversaries. ²⁸ⁱAnyone who has set aside the law of Moses dies without mercy ^jon the evidence of two or three witnesses. ²⁹How much worse punishment, do you think, will be deserved by the one ^kwho has trampled underfoot the Son of God, and has profaned ^lthe blood of the covenant ^mby which he was sanctified, and has ⁿoutraged the Spirit of grace? ³⁰For we know him who said, ^o“Vengeance is mine; I will repay.” And again, ^p“The Lord will judge his people.” ^31qIt is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
