Hebrews 10:32-39
New King James Version
32 But (A)recall the former days in which, after you were [a]illuminated, you endured a great struggle with sufferings: 33 partly while you were made (B)a spectacle both by reproaches and tribulations, and partly while (C)you became companions of those who were so treated; 34 for you had compassion on [b]me (D)in my chains, and (E)joyfully accepted the plundering of your [c]goods, knowing that (F)you have a better and an enduring possession for yourselves [d]in heaven. 35 Therefore do not cast away your confidence, (G)which has great reward. 36 (H)For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, (I)you may receive the promise:
37 “For (J)yet a little while,
And (K)He[e] who is coming will come and will not [f]tarry.
38 Now (L)the[g] just shall live by faith;
But if anyone draws back,
My soul has no pleasure in him.”
39 But we are not of those (M)who draw back to [h]perdition, but of those who (N)believe to the saving of the soul.

New American Standard Bible
32 But remember (A)the former days, [a]when, after being (B)enlightened, you endured a great (C)conflict of sufferings, 33 partly by being (D)made a public spectacle through insults and distress, and partly by becoming [b](E)companions with those who were so treated. 34 For you (F)showed sympathy to the prisoners and accepted (G)joyfully the seizure of your property, knowing that you have for yourselves (H)a better and lasting possession. 35 Therefore, do not throw away your (I)confidence, which has a great (J)reward. 36 For you have need of (K)endurance, so that when you have (L)done the will of God, you may (M)receive [c]what was promised.
37 (N)For yet in a very little while,
(O)He who is coming will come, and will not delay.
38 (P)But My righteous one will live by faith;
And if he shrinks back, My soul has no pleasure in him.
39 But [d]we are not among those who shrink back to destruction, but of those who have faith for the safekeeping of the soul.

Hebrews 10:32-39
Young's Literal Translation
32 And call to your remembrance the former days, in which, having been enlightened, ye did endure much conflict of sufferings,
33 partly both with reproaches and tribulations being made spectacles, and partly having become partners of those so living,
34 for also with my bonds ye sympathised, and the robbery of your goods with joy ye did receive, knowing that ye have in yourselves a better substance in the heavens, and an enduring one.
35 Ye may not cast away, then, your boldness, which hath great recompense of reward,
36 for of patience ye have need, that the will of God having done, ye may receive the promise,
37 for yet a very very little, He who is coming will come, and will not tarry;
38 and `the righteous by faith shall live,' and `if he may draw back, My soul hath no pleasure in him,'
39 and we are not of those drawing back to destruction, but of those believing to a preserving of soul.
