Revised Common Lectionary (Semicontinuous)
To Now Do Otherwise Is To Trample Underfoot The Son of God
26 For while[a] we are willfully[b] sinning[c] after the receiving of the knowledge of the truth, a sacrifice no longer remains[d] for sins, 27 but some fearful expectation[e] of judgment and a zeal of fire going to consume the adversaries. 28 Anyone having set-aside[f] the Law of Moses dies without compassions upon the testimony of two or three witnesses. 29 For how much worse punishment[g] do you think he will be considered-worthy— the one having trampled-underfoot the Son of God, and having regarded as defiled[h] the blood of the covenant by which[i] he was sanctified[j], and having insulted[k] the Spirit of grace? 30 For we know the One having said [in Deut 32:35]: “Vengeance is for Me, I will repay”; and again [in Deut 32:36]: “The Lord will judge His people”. 31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
