Hebrews 6:7-9

English Standard Version

⁷ For ^(A)land that has drunk the rain that often falls on it, and produces a crop useful to those for whose sake it is cultivated, receives a blessing from God. ⁸ But ^(B)if it bears thorns and thistles, it is worthless and near to being cursed, ^(C)and its end is to be burned.

⁹ Though we speak in this way, yet in your case, beloved, we feel sure of better things—things that belong to salvation.
