1:10-16 10 For
there are many rebellious men, empty talkers and deceivers, especially those of
the circumcision, 11 who must
be silenced because they are upsetting whole families, teaching things they
should not teach, for the sake of
sordid gain. 12 One of
themselves, a prophet of their own, said, "Cretans are always liars, evil
beasts, lazy gluttons." 13
This testimony is true. For this cause reprove them severely that they may be
sound in the faith, 14 not
paying attention to Jewish myths and commandments of men who turn away from the
truth. 15 To the pure, all
things are pure; but to those who are defiled and unbelieving, nothing is pure,
but both their mind and their conscience are defiled. 16 They profess to know God, but
by their deeds they deny Him, being detestable and disobedient,
and worthless for any good deed.)

NAS Hebrews 6:8 but if
it yields thorns and thistles, it is worthless and close to being cursed, and
it ends up being burned. (Worthless Christian Spiritual Life.) (Hebrews
6:4-12 4 For
in the case of those who have once been enlightened and have tasted of the
heavenly gift and have been made partakers of the Holy Spirit, 5 and have tasted the good word of
God and the powers of the age to come, 6
and then have fallen away, it is
impossible to renew them again to repentance, since they again crucify to
themselves the Son of God, and put Him to open shame. 7 For ground that drinks the rain
which often falls upon it and brings forth vegetation useful to those for whose
sake it is also tilled, receives a blessing from God; 8 but if it yields thorns and
thistles, it is worthless and close to being cursed, and it ends up being
burned. 9 But, beloved, we
are convinced of better things concerning you, and things that accompany
salvation, though we are speaking in this way.
10 For God is not unjust so as to forget your work and the
love which you have shown toward His name, in having ministered and in still
ministering to the saints. 11
And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence so as to realize the
full assurance of hope until the end, 12
that you may not be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and
patience inherit the promises.)
