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,
Na, kia mataku tatou, i te mea ka tukua iho nei he korero pai mo tatou kia tae atu ki tona okiokinga, kei tirohia mai tetahi o koutou kua mahue ki muri.
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,
He mea kauwhau hoki te rongopai ki a tatou, he pera ano me tera i a ratou: heoi kihai te kupu i rangona i whai pai ki a ratou; no te mea kihai i whakananua ki te whakapono i roto i te hunga i rangona ai.
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,
Ka taea hoki te okiokinga e tatou kua whakapono nei; ka rite ki tana i ki ra, Na reira i riri ai ahau, i oati ai hoki, e kore ratou e tae ki toku okiokinga: kua oti na hoki nga mahi i te timatanga ra ano o te ao.
4 for He spoke in a certain place concerning the seventh [day] thus: “And God rested in the seventh day from all His works”;
Ko tana kupu hoki tenei i tetahi wahi mo te ra whitu, A ka okioki te Atua i te ra whitu i ana mahi katoa.
5 and in this [place] again, “They will [not] enter into My rest”;
I tenei wahi ano hoki, E kore ratou e tae ki toku okiokinga.
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—
Na, tera atu ano he taenga mo etahi ki reira; kihai hoki te hunga i kauwhautia ai te rongopai ki a ratou i mua i tae, no te mea kahore o ratou whakapono:
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,”
A ka motuhia mai e ia tetahi ra, i a ia i mea ra i ta Rawiri, Hei aianei, i muri i taua wa roa ra; ko te kupu hoki tenei, Hei aianei, ki te rongo koutou ki tona reo, kaua e whakapakeketia o koutou ngakau.
8 for if Joshua had given them rest, He would not have spoken after these things concerning another day;
Mehemea hoki i whai okiokinga ratou i a Hohua, e kore e korerotia e ia tetahi atu ra i muri iho.
9 there remains, then, a Sabbath rest to the people of God,
Ina, tera atu ano he hapati okiokinga mo te iwi o te Atua.
10 for he who entered into His rest, he also rested from his works, as God from His own.
Ki te tae hoki te tangata ki tona okiokinga, ka okioki ano ia i ana mahi ake, ka pera me te Atua i okioki i ana mahi ake.
11 May we be diligent, then, to enter into that rest, that no one may fall in the same example of the unbelief,
Na, kia puta to tatou uaua ki te tomo ki taua okiokinga, kei pera te whakaponokore o tetahi, a ka hinga.
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;
Ora tonu hoki te kupu a te Atua, mana tonu, koi rawa atu i tetahi hoari matarua, ngoto tonu, a wehea noatia te ngakau me te wairua, nga ponapona me te hinu wheua, a wawae ana ano i nga whakaaro, i nga hihiritanga o te ngakau.
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.
Kahore hoki he mea hanga i ngaro ki tona aroaro: heoi e takoto kau ana, e tuwhera ana nga mea katoa ki ona kanohi, kei a ia nei he kupu mo tatou.
14 Having, then, a great Chief Priest having passed through the heavens—Jesus the Son of God—may we hold fast the profession,
Na, he tino tohunga nui to tatou, kua tomo ki nga rangi, a Ihu, te Tama a te Atua, kia mau pu tatou ki te tikanga i whakaaetia e tatou.
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;
Ehara hoki to tatou i te tohunga nui e kore e ahei kia mamae tahi me tatou e ngoikore nei; i whakamatautauria nei hoki ia i nga mea katoa, i i peneitia me tatou, kahore ia he hara.
16 we may come near, then, with freedom, to the throne of grace, that we may receive kindness, and find grace—for seasonable help.
Na, kia haere maia atu tatou ki te torona o te aroha noa, kia puta mai ai ki a tatou te mahi tohu, kia kitea ai e tatou ta te aroha noa hei awhina mai mo nga wa e mate ai.
