14 For by a single offering (A)he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified.

15 And the Holy Spirit also bears witness to us; for after saying,

16 (B)“This is the covenant that I will make with them
    after those days, declares the Lord:
I will put my laws on their hearts,
    and write them on their minds,”

17 then he adds,

(C)“I will remember their sins and their lawless deeds no more.”

18 Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin.

The Full Assurance of Faith

19 (D)Therefore, brothers,[a] since we have confidence to enter (E)the holy places by the blood of Jesus, 20 by (F)the new and living way that he opened for us through (G)the curtain, that is, through his flesh, 21 and since we have (H)a great priest over the house of God, 22 let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts (I)sprinkled clean (J)from an evil conscience and our bodies (K)washed with pure water. 23 (L)Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for (M)he who promised is faithful. 24 And (N)let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, 25 (O)not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and (P)all the more as you see (Q)the Day drawing near.

26 For (R)if we go on sinning deliberately (S)after receiving the knowledge of the truth, (T)there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, 27 (U)but a fearful expectation of judgment, and (V)a fury of fire that will consume the adversaries. 28 (W)Anyone who has set aside the law of Moses dies without mercy (X)on the evidence of two or three witnesses. 29 How much worse punishment, do you think, will be deserved by the one (Y)who has trampled underfoot the Son of God, and has profaned (Z)the blood of the covenant (AA)by which he was sanctified, and has (AB)outraged the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know him who said, (AC)“Vengeance is mine; I will repay.” And again, (AD)“The Lord will judge his people.”
