‏ Hebrews 9:28

 Once ( απαξ ). "Once for all" (verse 26) as already stated.

 Shall appear a second time ( εκ δευτερου οφθησετα ). Future passive indicative of  οραω. Blessed assurance of the Second Coming of Christ, but this time "apart from sin" ( χωρις αμαρτιας, no notion of a second chance then).

 Unto salvation ( εις σωτηριαν ). Final and complete salvation for "them that wait for him" ( τοις αυτον απεκδεχομενοις ). Dative plural of the articular participle present middle of  απεκδεχομα, the very verb used by Paul in Php 3:20 of waiting for the coming of Christ as Saviour.
