25 (A)not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and (B)all the more as you see (C)the Day drawing near.

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

32 But recall the former days when, after (R)you were enlightened, you endured (S)a hard struggle with sufferings, 33 sometimes being (T)publicly exposed to reproach and affliction, and sometimes being partners with those so treated. 34 For (U)you had compassion on those in prison, and (V)you joyfully accepted the plundering of your property, since you knew that you yourselves had (W)a better possession and an abiding one. 35 Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has (X)a great reward. 36 For (Y)you have need of endurance, so that (Z)when you have done the will of God you may (AA)receive what is promised. 37 For,

    (F)making my steps secure.
He put (G)a new song in my mouth,
    a song of praise to our God.
Many will (H)see and fear,
    and put their trust in the Lord.
