Hebrews 6:9-15

New American Standard Bible 1995

Better Things for You

⁹ But, ^(A)beloved, we are convinced of better things concerning you, and things that ^[a]accompany salvation, though we are speaking in this way. ¹⁰ For ^(B)God is not unjust so as to forget ^(C)your work and the love which you have shown toward His name, in having ^(D)ministered and in still ministering to the ^[b]saints. ¹¹ And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence ^[c]so as to realize the ^(E)full assurance of ^(F)hope until the end, ¹² so that you will not be sluggish, but ^(G)imitators of those who through ^(H)faith and patience ^(I)inherit the promises.

¹³ For ^(J)when God made the promise to Abraham, since He could swear by no one greater, He ^(K)swore by Himself, ¹⁴ saying, “^(L)I will surely bless you and I will surely multiply you.” ¹⁵ And so, ^(M)having patiently waited, he obtained the promise.
