For in the case of those once having been (A)enlightened and having tasted of (B)the heavenly gift and having become (C)partakers of the Holy Spirit, and having (D)tasted the good (E)word of God and the powers of (F)the age to come, and having fallen away, it is (G)impossible to renew them again to repentance, [a](H)since they again crucify to themselves the Son of God and put Him to open shame. For ground that drinks the rain which often [b]falls on it and brings forth vegetation useful to those (I)for whose sake it is also tilled, receives a blessing from God; but if it yields thorns and thistles, it is unfit and (J)close [c]to being cursed, and its end is to be burned.
