Hebrews 10:31 Context
29Of how much sorer punishment suppose ye, shall hee be thought worthy, who hath troden vnder foote þe Sonne of God, and hath counted the blood of the couenant wherwith he was sanctified, an vnholy thing, and hath done despite vnto the spirit of grace? 30For we know him that hath said, Uengeance belongeth vnto me, I wil recompence, saith the Lord: and again, The Lord shall iudge his people. 31It is a fearefull thing to fall into the hands of the liuing God. 32But call to remembrance the former dayes, in which after yee were illuminated, ye indured a great fight of afflictions: 33Partly whilest ye were made a gazing stocke both by reproches & afflictions, and partly whilest ye became companions of them that were so vsed.
