Hebrews 10:35-11:1
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
35 Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward. 36 For you have need of endurance, so that you may do the will of God and receive what is promised.
37 “For yet a little while,
and the coming one shall come and shall not tarry;
38 but my righteous one shall live by faith,
and if he shrinks back,
my soul has no pleasure in him.”
39 But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and keep their souls.
The Meaning of Faith
11 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.
Hebrews 10:35-11:1
New International Version
35 So do not throw away your confidence;(A) it will be richly rewarded.
36 You need to persevere(B) so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.(C) 37 For,
38 And,
“But my righteous[b] one will live by faith.(F)
And I take no pleasure
in the one who shrinks back.”[c](G)
39 But we do not belong to those who shrink back and are destroyed, but to those who have faith and are saved.
Faith in Action
11 Now faith is confidence in what we hope for(H) and assurance about what we do not see.(I)
