[HEBREWS] 希伯來書 06
[6A] Let Us Go Forward
01/<Then>
Let us go forward
to mature teaching
and leave behind us the first lessons
(for Christian message).
02/We should not lay again the foundation
(*of turning away from the useless works
and of believing in God);
(*of the teaching about baptisms
and the laying on/ of hands);
(*of resurrection of the dead
and the eternal judgment).
03/LET US GO FORWARD!
## <And> this is what we will do
<if> God allows.
04/<FOR>
HOW CAN THOSE
{WHO ABANDON THEIR FAITH}
BE BROUGHT BACK TO REPENT AGAIN?
05/*They were once in God's light;
*they tested heaven's gift
and received their share (of the Holy Spirit);
*they knew from experience
{that God's word is good},and
*they had felt the powers
(of the coming age).
06/<THEN>,
THEY ABANDONED
THEIR FAITH !!!
## IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO BRING
THEM BACK TO REPENT AGAIN,
<BECAUSE>
THEY ARE AGAIN CRUCIFYING
THE SON (OF GOD)
AND EXPOSING HIM
TO PUBLIC SHAME. !!!!!!!!
07/God blesses *the soil
{which drinks in *the rain}
{that often falls on it}
{and which grows *plants}
{that are useful to *those}
{for whom it is cultivated}.
08/<But>
<if> it grows thorns and weeds,//
it is worth nothing;
it is in danger (of being cursed < by God>)
and will be destroyed <by fire>.
09/<But>
dear friend,
<even if>
we speak like this,//
we feel sure about you.
## We know
that/ you have the better blessings
{that belong to your salvation.
10/God is not unfair;
he will not forget the work
{you did} or the love
{you showed for him}
<in the help>
{that you gave and are still giving
to your fellow-Christians}.
11/Our great desire is
that/ each one of you keep up your eagerness
<to the end>,
<so that>
the things {you hope for} will come true.
12/We do not want you to become lazy,
<but>
to be like those
{who believe and are patient
and so receive/ what God has promised.

[6B] God's Sure Promise
13/<When>
God made his promise
to Abraham,//
he made a vow to do/
what he had promised.
## <Since>
there was no one greater
than himself,//
he used his own name
<when> he made his vow.
14/He said,
"I promise you
that/ I will bless you and give you
many descendants."
15/Abraham was patient,
<and> <so>
he received/ what God had promised.
16/<When>
we makes a vow,//
we use the name (of someone)
(greater than himself)
<and>
the vow settles all arguments.
17/<To those>
{who were to received/ what he promised},//
God wanted to make it very clear/
that/ he would never change his purpose;
<so>
he added his vow to the promise.
18/ <Then>
there are these two things
{that cannot change
and about which God cannot lie}.
## <So>
we {who have found safety (with him)}
are greatly encouraged to hold the hope
(placed before us).
19/We have this hope
(as an anchor for our lives).
## It is safe and sure,
<and>
it goes through the curtain (of heavenly temple)
into the inner sanctuary.
20/<ON OUR BEHALF>,
JESUS HAS GONE IN THERE <BEFORE US>,
AND HAS BECOME A HIGH PRIEST
<FOR EVER>,
<IN THE LINE OF SUCCESSION
TO MELCHIZEDEK>.
