10. For God is not unrighteous, so as to forget your work and the labor of love which you showed toward his name, in that you served the saints, and still do serve them.
11. We desire that each one of you may show the same diligence to the fullness of hope even to the end,
12. that you won’t be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and perseverance inherited the promises.
13. For when God made a promise to Abraham, since he could swear by no one greater, he swore by himself,
14. saying, “Surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply you.”
15. Thus, having patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
