Hebrews 6:6-8

6:6 and then have committed apostasy, ¹  to renew them again to repentance, since ²  they are crucifying the Son of God for themselves all over again ³  and holding him up to contempt. 6:7 For the ground that has soaked up the rain that frequently falls on ⁴  it and yields useful vegetation for those who tend it receives a blessing from God. 6:8 But if it produces thorns and thistles, it is useless and about to be cursed; ⁵  its fate is to be burned.
