< Hebrews 4 >

1 We may fear, then, lest a promise being left of entering into His rest, anyone of you may seem to have come short,
فَلْنَخَفْ، أَنَّهُ مَعَ بَقَاءِ وَعْدٍ بِٱلدُّخُولِ إِلَى رَاحَتِهِ، يُرَى أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ أَنَّهُ قَدْ خَابَ مِنْهُ!١
2 for we also are having good news proclaimed, even as they, but the word heard did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in those who heard,
لِأَنَّنَا نَحْنُ أَيْضًا قَدْ بُشِّرْنَا كَمَا أُولَئِكَ، لَكِنْ لَمْ تَنْفَعْ كَلِمَةُ ٱلْخَبَرِ أُولَئِكَ. إِذْ لَمْ تَكُنْ مُمْتَزِجَةً بِٱلْإِيمَانِ فِي ٱلَّذِينَ سَمِعُوا.٢
3 for we enter into the rest—we who believed, as He said, “So I swore in My anger, They will [not] enter into My rest”; and yet the works were done from the foundation of the world,
لِأَنَّنَا نَحْنُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ نَدْخُلُ ٱلرَّاحَةَ، كَمَا قَالَ: «حَتَّى أَقْسَمْتُ فِي غَضَبِي: لَنْ يَدْخُلُوا رَاحَتِي» مَعَ كَوْنِ ٱلْأَعْمَالِ قَدْ أُكْمِلَتْ مُنْذُ تَأْسِيسِ ٱلْعَالَمِ.٣
4 for He spoke in a certain place concerning the seventh [day] thus: “And God rested in the seventh day from all His works”;
لِأَنَّهُ قَالَ فِي مَوْضِعٍ عَنِ ٱلسَّابِعِ هَكَذَا: «وَٱسْتَرَاحَ ٱللهُ فِي ٱلْيَوْمِ ٱلسَّابِعِ مِنْ جَمِيعِ أَعْمَالِهِ».٤
5 and in this [place] again, “They will [not] enter into My rest”;
وَفِي هَذَا أَيْضًا: «لَنْ يَدْخُلُوا رَاحَتِي».٥
6 since then, it remains for some to enter into it, and those who first heard good news did not enter in because of unbelief—
فَإِذْ بَقِيَ أَنَّ قَوْمًا يَدْخُلُونَهَا، وَٱلَّذِينَ بُشِّرُوا أَوَّلًا لَمْ يَدْخُلُوا لِسَبَبِ ٱلْعِصْيَانِ،٦
7 again He limits a certain day, “Today,” in David saying, after so long a time, as it has been said, “Today, if you may hear His voice, you may not harden your hearts,”
يُعَيِّنُ أَيْضًا يَوْمًا قَائِلًا فِي دَاوُدَ: «ٱلْيَوْمَ» بَعْدَ زَمَانٍ هَذَا مِقْدَارُهُ، كَمَا قِيلَ: «ٱلْيَوْمَ، إِنْ سَمِعْتُمْ صَوْتَهُ، فَلَا تُقَسُّوا قُلُوبَكُمْ».٧
8 for if Joshua had given them rest, He would not have spoken after these things concerning another day;
لِأَنَّهُ لَوْ كَانَ يَشُوعُ قَدْ أَرَاحَهُمْ لَمَا تَكَلَّمَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ عَنْ يَوْمٍ آخَرَ.٨
9 there remains, then, a Sabbath rest to the people of God,
إِذًا بَقِيَتْ رَاحَةٌ لِشَعْبِ ٱللهِ!٩
10 for he who entered into His rest, he also rested from his works, as God from His own.
لِأَنَّ ٱلَّذِي دَخَلَ رَاحَتَهُ ٱسْتَرَاحَ هُوَ أَيْضًا مِنْ أَعْمَالِهِ، كَمَا ٱللهُ مِنْ أَعْمَالِهِ.١٠
11 May we be diligent, then, to enter into that rest, that no one may fall in the same example of the unbelief,
فَلْنَجْتَهِدْ أَنْ نَدْخُلَ تِلْكَ ٱلرَّاحَةَ، لِئَلَّا يَسْقُطَ أَحَدٌ فِي عِبْرَةِ ٱلْعِصْيَانِ هَذِهِ عَيْنِهَا.١١
12 for the Word of God is living, and working, and sharper—beyond every two-edged sword—and piercing as far as [the] division of soul and spirit, of joints and also marrows, and a discerner of thoughts and intents of the heart;
لِأَنَّ كَلِمَةَ ٱللهِ حَيَّةٌ وَفَعَّالَةٌ وَأَمْضَى مِنْ كُلِّ سَيْفٍ ذِي حَدَّيْنِ، وَخَارِقَةٌ إِلَى مَفْرَقِ ٱلنَّفْسِ وَٱلرُّوحِ وَٱلْمَفَاصِلِ وَٱلْمِخَاخِ، وَمُمَيِّزَةٌ أَفْكَارَ ٱلْقَلْبِ وَنِيَّاتِهِ.١٢
13 and there is not a created thing hidden before Him, but all things [are] naked and open to His eyes—with whom is our reckoning.
وَلَيْسَتْ خَلِيقَةٌ غَيْرَ ظَاهِرَةٍ قُدَّامَهُ، بَلْ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ عُرْيَانٌ وَمَكْشُوفٌ لِعَيْنَيْ ذَلِكَ ٱلَّذِي مَعَهُ أَمْرُنَا.١٣
14 Having, then, a great Chief Priest having passed through the heavens—Jesus the Son of God—may we hold fast the profession,
فَإِذْ لَنَا رَئِيسُ كَهَنَةٍ عَظِيمٌ قَدِ ٱجْتَازَ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ، يَسُوعُ ٱبْنُ ٱللهِ، فَلْنَتَمَسَّكْ بِٱلْإِقْرَارِ.١٤
15 for we do not have a Chief Priest unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but [One] tempted in all things in like manner, [yet] without sin;
لِأَنْ لَيْسَ لَنَا رَئِيسُ كَهَنَةٍ غَيْرُ قَادِرٍ أَنْ يَرْثِيَ لِضَعَفَاتِنَا، بَلْ مُجَرَّبٌ فِي كُلِّ شَيْءٍ مِثْلُنَا، بِلَا خَطِيَّةٍ.١٥
16 we may come near, then, with freedom, to the throne of grace, that we may receive kindness, and find grace—for seasonable help.
فَلْنَتَقَدَّمْ بِثِقَةٍ إِلَى عَرْشِ ٱلنِّعْمَةِ لِكَيْ نَنَالَ رَحْمَةً وَنَجِدَ نِعْمَةً عَوْنًا فِي حِينِهِ.١٦
