Leviticus 13:55

2 Peter 2:20-22
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
20 For if, after they have escaped the defilements of the world through the knowledge of the[a] Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again entangled in them and overpowered, the last state has become worse for them than the first.(A) 21 For it would have been better for them never to have known the way of righteousness than, after knowing it, to turn back from the holy commandment that was handed on to them.(B) 22 It has happened to them according to the true proverb,
“The dog turns back to its own vomit,”
and,
“The sow is washed only to wallow in the mud.”(C)

Hebrews 6:4-8
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
4 For it is impossible to restore again to repentance those who have once been enlightened and have tasted the heavenly gift and have shared in the Holy Spirit(A) 5 and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come(B) 6 and then have fallen away, since they are crucifying again the Son of God to their own harm and are holding him up to contempt.(C) 7 Ground that drinks up the rain falling on it repeatedly and that produces a crop useful to those for whom it is cultivated receives a blessing from God.(D) 8 But if it produces thorns and thistles, it is worthless and on the verge of being cursed; its end is to be burned over.(E)

New International Version
4 It is impossible for those who have once been enlightened,(A) who have tasted the heavenly gift,(B) who have shared in the Holy Spirit,(C) 5 who have tasted the goodness(D) of the word of God(E) and the powers of the coming age 6 and who have fallen[a] away, to be brought back to repentance.(F) To their loss they are crucifying the Son of God(G) all over again and subjecting him to public disgrace. 7 Land that drinks in the rain often falling on it and that produces a crop useful to those for whom it is farmed receives the blessing of God. 8 But land that produces thorns and thistles is worthless and is in danger of being cursed.(H) In the end it will be burned.
