29 How much more severe do you think the punishment will be for the one who has trampled Ben-Elohim underfoot, and has regarded as unholy the blood of the covenant by which he was made holy, and has insulted the Spirit of grace?
30 For we know the One who said, “Vengeance is Mine; I will repay,” and again, “Adonai will judge His people.”
31 It is a terrifying thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
32 But remember the former days when, after you were enlightened, you endured a great struggle with sufferings.
33 Sometimes you were publicly exposed to abuses and afflictions, and other times you became partners with those who were treated this way.
34 For you suffered along with the prisoners and joyfully accepted the plundering of your possessions, knowing that you have for yourselves a better and lasting possession.
35 Therefore, do not lose your boldness, which has great reward.
