14saying, "Most surely I will bless you, and I will surely multiply you."
15Thus, having patiently endured, he obtained the promise.
16For men indeed swear by a greater one, and in every dispute of theirs the oath is final for confirmation.
17Wherein God, being determined to show more abundantly to the heirs of the promise the immutability of his counsel, interposed with an oath;
18that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we may have a strong encouragement, who have fled for refuge to take hold of the hope set before us,
19which we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and entering into that which is within the veil;
20where as a forerunner Jesus entered for us, having become a high priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.
