Hebrews 6:9

---

← Hebrews 6:8	Hebrews 6:9 (KJV)	Hebrews 6:10 →
But that which beareth thorns and briers [is] rejected, and [is] nigh unto cursing; whose end [is] to be burned.	But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak.	For God [is] not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.
