Hebrews 10:26-31
New Living Translation
26 Dear friends, if we deliberately continue sinning after we have received knowledge of the truth, there is no longer any sacrifice that will cover these sins. 27 There is only the terrible expectation of God’s judgment and the raging fire that will consume his enemies. 28 For anyone who refused to obey the law of Moses was put to death without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses. 29 Just think how much worse the punishment will be for those who have trampled on the Son of God, and have treated the blood of the covenant, which made us holy, as if it were common and unholy, and have insulted and disdained the Holy Spirit who brings God’s mercy to us. 30 For we know the one who said,
“I will take revenge.
I will pay them back.”[a]
He also said,
“The Lord will judge his own people.”[b]
31 It is a terrible thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

Hebrews 10:26-31
English Standard Version
26 For (A)if we go on sinning deliberately (B)after receiving the knowledge of the truth, (C)there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, 27 (D)but a fearful expectation of judgment, and (E)a fury of fire that will consume the adversaries. 28 (F)Anyone who has set aside the law of Moses dies without mercy (G)on the evidence of two or three witnesses. 29 How much worse punishment, do you think, will be deserved by the one (H)who has trampled underfoot the Son of God, and has profaned (I)the blood of the covenant (J)by which he was sanctified, and has (K)outraged the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know him who said, (L)“Vengeance is mine; I will repay.” And again, (M)“The Lord will judge his people.” 31 (N)It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
