Hebrews 10:32-39
New International Version
32 Remember those earlier days after you had received the light,(A) when you endured in a great conflict full of suffering.(B) 33 Sometimes you were publicly exposed to insult and persecution;(C) at other times you stood side by side with those who were so treated.(D) 34 You suffered along with those in prison(E) and joyfully accepted the confiscation of your property, because you knew that you yourselves had better and lasting possessions.(F) 35 So do not throw away your confidence;(G) it will be richly rewarded.
36 You need to persevere(H) so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.(I) 37 For,
38 And,
“But my righteous[b] one will live by faith.(L)
And I take no pleasure
in the one who shrinks back.”[c](M)
39 But we do not belong to those who shrink back and are destroyed, but to those who have faith and are saved.

Hebrews 10:32-39
King James Version
32 But call to remembrance the former days, in which, after ye were illuminated, ye endured a great fight of afflictions;
33 Partly, whilst ye were made a gazingstock both by reproaches and afflictions; and partly, whilst ye became companions of them that were so used.
34 For ye had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that ye have in heaven a better and an enduring substance.
35 Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.
36 For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.
37 For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry.
38 Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.
39 But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.

New King James Version
32 But (A)recall the former days in which, after you were [a]illuminated, you endured a great struggle with sufferings: 33 partly while you were made (B)a spectacle both by reproaches and tribulations, and partly while (C)you became companions of those who were so treated; 34 for you had compassion on [b]me (D)in my chains, and (E)joyfully accepted the plundering of your [c]goods, knowing that (F)you have a better and an enduring possession for yourselves [d]in heaven. 35 Therefore do not cast away your confidence, (G)which has great reward. 36 (H)For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, (I)you may receive the promise:
37 “For (J)yet a little while,
And (K)He[e] who is coming will come and will not [f]tarry.
38 Now (L)the[g] just shall live by faith;
But if anyone draws back,
My soul has no pleasure in him.”
39 But we are not of those (M)who draw back to [h]perdition, but of those who (N)believe to the saving of the soul.
