Wherefore leaving the doctrine of the first principles of Christ, let us press on unto perfection; not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,

For this reason let us go on from the first things about Christ to full growth; not building again that on which it is based, that is, the turning of the heart from dead works, and faith in God,

Δια τουτο αφησαντες την αρχικην διδασκαλιαν του Χριστου, ας φερωμεθα προς την τελειοτητα, χωρις να βαλλωμεν εκ νεου θεμελιον μετανοιας απο νεκρων εργων και πιστεως εις Θεον,

Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God,
