KumaHeberu 6:10-20

Ngokuba uNkulunkulu kasiye ongalungile ukuba akhohlwe umsebenzi wenu nothando enalubonakalisa ngakulo igama lakhe, lokhu nibakhonzile abangcwele, nisabakhonza. Kepha sinxanela ukuba yilowo nalowo kini abonakalise lokho kukhuthalela, lize liphelele ithemba kuze kube sekupheleni, ukuba ningabi buthuntu, kodwa nibalingise labo abadla ifa lesithembiso ngokukholwa nangokubekezela. Ngokuba lapho uNkulunkulu wamthembisa u-Abrahama, wazifunga yena, lokhu kungekho omkhulu kunaye angamfunga, wathi: “Impela ngiyakukubusisa nokukubusisa, ngiyakukwandisa nokukwandisa,” kanjalo kwathi esebekezele, wakuzuza okwathenjiswayo. Ngokuba abantu bafunga omkhulu kunabo; kubona isifungo siyaqeda ukuphikisana konke, siqinise. Kulokhu-ke uNkulunkulu, ethanda kakhulu impela ukubonisa izindlalifa zesithembiso ukungaguquleki kwecebo lakhe, walamula ngesifungo, ukuze ngezinto ezimbili ezingeguquleke, uNkulunkulu angeqambe amanga ngazo, sibe nenduduzo enamandla thina esibalekele ekulibambeni ithemba esilimiselweyo, esinalo njengehange* lomphefumulo, liqinile, ligxilile, lingena kokungaphakathi kwesihenqo, lapho uJesu eyisigijimi sokusandulela wangena khona, esewaba ngumpristi omkhulu kuze kube phakade ngokokuma kukaMelkisedeki.
