1. Wherefore, having left the word of the beginning of the Christ, unto the perfection we may advance, not again a foundation laying of reformation from dead works, and of faith on God,
2. of the teaching of baptisms, of laying on also of hands, of rising again also of the dead, and of judgment age-during,
3. and this we will do, if God may permit,
4. for [it is] impossible for those once enlightened, having tasted also of the heavenly gift, and partakers having became of the Holy Spirit,
5. and did taste the good saying of God, the powers also of the coming age,
6. and having fallen away, again to renew [them] to reformation, having crucified again to themselves the Son of God, and exposed to public shame.
