RKJNT - Hebrews - 4

4:1  Therefore, let us fear, lest while a promise of entering into his rest remains, any of you should seem to fall short of it.

4:2  For the gospel was preached to us, as well as to them: but the word preached did not benefit them, because it was not combined with faith in those who heard it.

4:3  For we who have believed enter into that rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, they shall never enter my rest: although his works were finished from the foundation of the world.

4:4  For he spoke in a certain place of the seventh day in this manner, And God rested on the seventh day from all his works.

4:5  And again in this passage, They shall never enter my rest.

4:6  Therefore, since it remains that some must enter in, and those to whom it was first preached did not enter in because of unbelief:

4:7  He again fixes a certain day, calling it Today, saying through David after so long a time, as was said before, Today if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts.

4:8  For if Joshua had given them rest, then he would not afterward have spoken of another day.

4:9  Therefore, there remains a sabbath rest for the people of God.

4:10  For he who has entered his rest, has also has ceased from his own works, as God did from his.

4:11  Therefore, let us labour to enter that rest, lest any man fall by following their example of disobedience.

4:12  For the word of God is alive, and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intents of the heart.

4:13  Nor is there any creature concealed from his sight: but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account.

4:14  Seeing then that we have a great high priest, who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.

4:15  For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our infirmities; but one who in every respect was tempted as we are, yet without sin.

4:16  Therefore, let us boldly approach the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
