Hebrews 6:13-20

21st Century King James Version

¹³ For when God made promise to Abraham, because He could swear by no greater, He swore by Himself,

¹⁴ saying, “Surely in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thee.”

¹⁵ And so, after he had patiently endured, he obtained the promise.

¹⁶ For men verily swear by the greater, and an oath of confirmation is to them an end to all strife.

¹⁷ Thereby God, willing more abundantly to show unto the heirs of promise the immutability of His counsel, confirmed it by an oath,

¹⁸ that by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we, who have fled for refuge, might have strong consolation to lay hold upon the hope set before us.

¹⁹ This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which entereth into that within the veil,

²⁰ where the Forerunner has entered for us, even Jesus, who is made a high priest forever, after the order of Melchizedek.
