The Just Live by Faith
26 For (A)if we sin willfully (B)after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there (C)no longer remains a sacrifice for sins, 27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and (D)fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries. 28 Anyone who has rejected Moses’ law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three (E)witnesses. 29 (F)Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, (G)counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, (H)and insulted the Spirit of grace?

Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears,
Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn,
So that I [a]should (E)heal them.’

And seeing you will see, and not perceive;

Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn,

13 Therefore the Lord said:

And honor Me (G)with their lips,
But have removed their hearts far from Me,
And their fear toward Me is taught by the commandment of men,
14 (H)Therefore, behold, I will again do a marvelous work
Among this people,
A marvelous work and a wonder;
(I)For the wisdom of their wise men shall perish,
And the understanding of their prudent men shall be hidden.”
