< Hebrews 4 >
1 Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left of entering into his rest, any one of you might seem to have failed [of it].
ⲁ̅ⲙⲁⲣⲉⲛⲉⲣϩⲟϯ ⲟⲩⲛ ⲙⲏⲡⲟⲧⲉ ⳿ⲉⲁⲩⲥⲱϫⲡ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲉⲡⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲁ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉϥⲙⲁ ⳿ⲛⲉⲙⲧⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲑⲏⲛⲟⲩ ⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲉⲣϧⲁ⳿ⲉ.
2 For indeed we have had glad tidings presented to us, even as they also; but the word of the report did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard.
ⲃ̅ⲁⲩϩⲓϣⲉⲛⲛⲟⲩϥⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛⲁⲛ ϩⲱⲛ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛⲛⲏ ⲁⲗⲗⲁ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥⲉⲣϩⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲛⲏ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ϫⲉ ⲡⲟⲩϩⲏⲧ ⲑⲏⲧ ⲁⲛ ⲡⲉ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲛⲁϩϯ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲁⲩⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ.
3 For we enter into the rest who have believed; as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, If they shall enter into my rest; although the works had been completed from [the] foundation of [the] world.
ⲅ̅ⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁϣⲉ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲙⲁ ⳿ⲛⲉⲙⲧⲟⲛ ϧⲁ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲁⲩⲛⲁϩϯ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲧⲁϥϫⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲧⲁⲓⲱⲣⲕ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲁϫⲱⲛⲧ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲩ⳿ⲉϣⲉ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉⲡⲁⲙⲁ ⳿ⲛⲉⲙⲧⲟⲛ ⲕⲉⲧⲟⲓ ⲛⲓ⳿ϩⲃⲏ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⲉⲧⲁⲩϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲓⲥϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲕⲁⲧⲁⲃⲟⲗⲏ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ.
4 For he has said somewhere of the seventh [day] thus, And God rested on the seventh day from all his works:
ⲇ̅ⲁϥϫⲟⲥ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ ϩⲓⲟⲩⲙⲁ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲡⲓⲙⲁϩⲍ̅ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ϫⲉ ⲁϥ⳿ⲙⲧⲟⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲫϯ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲙⲁϩⲍ̅ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲉϥ⳿ϩⲃⲏⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ.
5 and in this again, If they shall enter into my rest.
ⲉ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲟⲛ ϫⲉ ⲁⲛ ⲥⲉⲛⲁϣⲉ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉⲡⲁⲙⲁ ⳿ⲛⲉⲙⲧⲟⲛ.
6 Seeing therefore it remains that some enter into it, and those who first received the glad tidings did not enter in on account of not hearkening to the word,
ⲋ̅ⲉⲡⲓⲇⲏ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ϥⲥⲱϫⲡ ⳿ⲛϩⲁⲛⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲛⲓϣⲟⲣⲡ ⲉⲧⲁⲩϩⲓϣⲉⲛⲛⲟⲩϥⲓ ⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩϣⲉ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲧⲟⲩⲙⲉⲧⲁⲑⲛⲁϩϯ.
7 again he determines a certain day, saying, in David, 'To-day,' after so long a time; (according as it has been said before), To-day, if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
ⲍ̅ⲡⲁⲗⲓⲛ ⳿ϥⲑⲱϣ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⳿ⲙⲫⲟⲟⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲇⲁⲩⲓⲇ ⲙⲉⲛⲉⲛⲥⲁ ⲟⲩⲥⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁⲓⲙⲁⲓⲏ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲕⲁⲧⲁ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲧⲁϥϫⲟⲥ ⲓⲥϫⲉⲛ ϣⲟⲣⲡ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲫⲟⲟⲩ ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲣⲉⲧⲉⲛϣⲁⲛⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⲉⲧⲉϥ⳿ⲥⲙⲏ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉⲣϯⲉⲛϣⲟⲧ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛϩⲏⲧ.
8 For if Jesus had brought them into rest, he would not have spoken afterwards about another day.
ⲏ̅⳿ⲉⲛⲉ ⲁ ⲓⲏⲥⲟⲩ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲑⲣⲟⲩ⳿ⲙⲧⲟⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲛⲁϥⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲁⲛ ⲉⲑⲃⲉ ⲕⲉⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲙⲉⲛⲉⲛⲥⲁ ⲛⲁⲓ.
9 There remains then a sabbatism to the people of God.
ⲑ̅ϩⲁⲣⲁ ⲟⲩⲛ ⲟⲩⲥⲁⲃⲃⲁⲧⲓⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲥⲱϫⲡ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲗⲁⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ.
10 For he that has entered into his rest, he also has rested from his works, as God did from his own.
ⲓ̅ⲫⲁⲓ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲉⲧⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉϥⲙⲁ ⳿ⲛⲉⲙⲧⲟⲛ ⳿ⲛⲑⲟϥ ϩⲱϥ ⲁϥ⳿ⲙⲧⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲉϥ⳿ϩⲃⲏⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⲉⲧⲁϥ⳿ⲙⲧⲟⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲫϯ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲉⲧⲉⲛⲟⲩϥ.
11 Let us therefore use diligence to enter into that rest, that no one may fall after the same example of not hearkening to the word.
ⲓ̅ⲁ̅ⲙⲁⲣⲉⲛⲓⲏⲥ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲙⲁ ⳿ⲛⲉⲙⲧⲟⲛ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ⳿ϣⲧⲉⲙ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ϩⲉⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϧⲣⲏⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲁⲓ⳿ⲥⲙⲟⲧ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲱⲧ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯⲙⲉⲧⲁⲧⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ.
12 For the word of God [is] living and operative, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and penetrating to [the] division of soul and spirit, both of joints and marrow, and a discerner of the thoughts and intents of [the] heart.
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅⳿ϥⲉⲛϩⲟⲧ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ϥⲉⲣϩⲱⲃ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ϥϣⲱⲧ ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲥⲏϥⲓ ⲛⲓⲃⲉⲛ ⳿ⲛⲣⲟ ⲃ̅ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ϥⲛⲁ ⳿ⲉϧⲟⲩⲛ ϣⲁ ⲡⲓⲫⲱϣ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ϯⲯⲩⲭⲏ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓⲡ͞ⲛⲁ̅ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓϩⲱⲧⲡ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲁⲧⲕⲁⲥ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ϥⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛϧⲟⲧϧⲉⲧ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ ⲛⲓⲙⲟⲕⲙⲉⲕ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲓⲙⲉⲩⲓ ⳿ⲛϩⲏⲧ.
13 And there is not a creature unapparent before him; but all things [are] naked and laid bare to his eyes, with whom we have to do.
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲛ ⳿ϩⲗⲓ ⳿ⲛⲥⲱⲛⲧ ϩⲏⲡ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥ⳿ⲙⲑⲟ ⲥⲉⲃⲏϣ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲥⲉⲟⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲁⲣⲁⲃ ⲛⲁϩⲃⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ⳿ⲙⲑⲟ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉϥⲃⲁⲗ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲉⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲥⲁϫⲓ ⲫⲉϩ ⲛⲁⲛ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ.
14 Having therefore a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast the confession.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛⲧⲁⲛ ⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲛⲓϣϯ ⳿ⲛⲁⲣⲭⲏ ⲉⲣⲉⲩⲥ ⳿ⲉⲁϥⲥⲉⲛ ⲛⲓⲫⲏⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲡϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ ⲙⲁⲣⲉⲛ⳿ⲁⲙⲟⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲟⲩⲱⲛϩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
15 For we have not a high priest not able to sympathise with our infirmities, but tempted in all things in like manner, sin apart.

16 Let us approach therefore with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and find grace for seasonable help.
