Main point summary
Those in the new covenant (we/us) who reject it can expect that their judgment shall be great. In fact, it shall be far greater/worse than Israel who rejected the covenant of Moses, since ours is the covenant of Christ, inaugurated by his blood, and given efficacy by the Spirit. God is not to be mocked.

temporal
οὐκέτι περὶ ἁμαρτιῶν ἀπολείπεται θυσία,
there no longer remains a sacrifice concerning sins
conditional

Rather, only a fearful expectation of judgment

dies without compassion upon two or three testimonies
πόσῳ δοκεῖτε χείρονος ἀξιωθήσεται τιμωρίας ὁ τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ θεοῦ καταπατήσας
(then) How much worse punishment do you think the one who trampled underfoot the Son of God,
καὶ τὸ αἷμα τῆς διαθήκης κοινὸν ἡγησάμενος,
the one who regards the blood of the covenant (to be) unclean,
ἐν ᾧ ἡγιάσθη,
by which he was cleansed,

and the one who insults the Spirit of grace will be worthy of?

" Vengeance is mine, I will repay ."
