If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put <i>him</i> to an open shame. and <i>then</i> have fallen away, to restore them again to repentance, since they again crucify to themselves the Son of God and put Him to open shame. and who have fallen away, to be brought back to repentance. To their loss they are crucifying the Son of God all over again and subjecting him to public disgrace.

But if it bears thorns and thistles, it is worthless and near to being cursed, and its end is to be burned. But that which beareth thorns and briers <i>is</i> rejected, and <i>is</i> nigh unto cursing; whose end <i>is</i> to be burned. but if it yields thorns and thistles, it is worthless and close to being cursed, and it ends up being burned. But land that produces thorns and thistles is worthless and is in danger of being cursed. In the end it will be burned.

For people swear an oath by one greater <i>than themselves,</i> and with them an oath <i>serving</i> as confirmation is an end of every dispute. People swear by someone greater than themselves, and the oath confirms what is said and puts an end to all argument.
17 So when God wanted to make the unchanging nature of His purpose very clear to the heirs of the promise, He guaranteed it with an oath. So when God desired to show more convincingly to the heirs of the promise the unchangeable character of his purpose, he guaranteed it with an oath, Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed <i>it</i> by an oath: In the same way God, desiring even more to demonstrate to the heirs of the promise the fact that His purpose is unchangeable, confirmed it with an oath, Because God wanted to make the unchanging nature of his purpose very clear to the heirs of what was promised, he confirmed it with an oath.
18 Thus by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope set before us may be strongly encouraged. so that by two unchangeable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled for refuge might have strong encouragement to hold fast to the hope set before us. That by two immutable things, in which <i>it was</i> impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us: so that by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have taken refuge would have strong encouragement to hold firmly to the hope set before us. God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of the hope set before us may be greatly encouraged.
19 We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the inner place behind the curtain, Which <i>hope</i> we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil; This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a <i>hope</i> both sure and reliable and one which enters within the veil, We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain,
