| 11 | And we desire that every one of you do shew the same diligence to the full assurance of hope unto the end: | We want each of you to show this same diligence to the very end, in order to make your hope sure. | And we desire that each one of you may show the same diligence unto the fulness of hope even to the end: |

AI-assisted, sourcedHebrews 6:9-12Better things of you
About Hebrews 6"Let us go on unto perfection," the writer urges, warning that "it is impossible for those who were once enlightened... If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance." Yet "we are persuaded better things of you," for God will not forget "your work and labour of love," and they should be "followers of them who through faith and patience inherit the promises." God confirmed his promise to Abraham with an oath, "he sware by himself," so that by two things in which "it was impossible for God to lie" we have hope "as an anchor of the soul," where Jesus has entered as "an high priest for ever."
